CSS/Dreamweaver Problem

Hello -
Within my webpage, I am linking to several stylesheets with the following coding:

<link rel=stylesheet href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"../../CSS/ky_ewdt_standards.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel=stylesheet href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"../../CSS/kdla_subpagebanner.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel=stylesheet href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"../../CSS/kdla_content_area.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel=stylesheet href=http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/"../../CSS/kdla_colorscheme.css" type="text/css" />

When working with this webpage in Dreamweaver, sometimes the CSS layout shows in Design View, sometimes it doesn't; also, when selecting a class using the CSS panel for the coding, sometimes the classes are displayed fully, other times, only partially.

Is there a reason why the display is not consistent?

FYI -
Dreamweaver MX version 6.0
Windows XP

Possible CSS culprits:
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_content_area.css">http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_content_area.css</a><!-- m -->
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_colorsheme.css">http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_colorsheme.css</a><!-- m -->
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_subpagebanner.css">http://kdla.ky.gov/css/kdla_subpagebanner.css</a><!-- m -->

Thanks for your consideration -I can't really answer your question but here is how I solved it:

:DDon't rely on the design mode in DreamWeaver for anything. I only use DreamWeaver MX to write my code (I like how it guesses the tags for you and color codes the text). When you want to preview you page, save it and open it up in Firefox and Internet Explorer to test it.

DreamWeaver's Design mode doesn't match IE, FF or any other browser at all. IMO it's worthless (the design mode).Originally posted by heavenly_blue
...I only use DreamWeaver MX to write my code (I like how it guesses the tags for you and color codes the text)... I've found it to mangle my code from time to time as well.Thanks to both of you for the advice.

Like you, I've had multiple problems with Dreamweaver in the past (especially with Find/Replace and the templates), but this one has suddenly cropped up and is very annoying. I thought it was due to my everlasting bad computer karma.

Thanks again -
