The result of the validation says: No stylesheet found. If you remove the blank in the first line (within the comment) then the validator recognizes the rules. If you write something within the comment it fails too. But if write a blank immediately before the last asterisk in the first line everything works: /********************** *************** */ *.gg { color: blue; } body { background-color: red;} This doesn't work: /**********************hello****************/ *.gg { color: blue; } body { background-color: red;} And this works: /**********************hello*************** */ *.gg { color: blue; } body { background-color: red;} Kind regards DJ CaFe 1773 1 ylafon 2004-04-28 10:08:17 +0000 Fixed by creating a new CssParser instead of reusing a previously allocated one.
