ASP.NET page is not loading CSS styles on my local iis web server

Question

I have a local ASP.NET web site written in VB.NET runing on W7. The default web page contains a simple style sheet which is loaded as follows

<link rel="stylesheet" href="dchs.css" type="text/css" media="screen" runat="server"></link>

The page is displayed without the above styling. The style sheet does exist as I can display it via the web browers as

file:///c:/inetpub/wwwroot/c1/dchs.css

but I cannot display it via the brower using

http://localhost/c1/dchs.css

This leads me to believe that IIS has some form of access problem to the C1 directory. It a similar way I can display a jpeg image via file://c1 bit not via localhost which gives an error message

The image "http://localhost/c1/menu.jpeg" cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Yes all the scripts plus the css file and a couple of jpegs are all in the same file. All the rest of the aspx code runs fine. — DZS50

How you attached the .css file to your html project? where is it located?

Options:

1. Drag and drop your .css file to your html page.(Inside)

like this:

<link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="images/fil.ico" />

Make sure all folders and files are include when project deployed And a correct calling of id or class in your css of course.

This is not a Visual Studio project. All the VB script code are in aspx files created via a text editor

Doesn't make sense, the important is you construct the code correctly according to your project path folder.
