Hi rubeus,

If you see this happen again, run the external css validator to make sure the css is valid.

If I have the following in a linked stylesheet and play with the color, it impacts Preview and BV almost instantly.


p {
color: red;
}

This proves that the proper signals are being sent almost immediately and that BV and PV receive those signals and update accordingly.

Now if I write invalid css such as

p {
hcolor: red;
}

and play with the value red, it is never reflected in BV and PV. In fact, having invalid css earlier on in the stylesheet may prevent later stylesheet elements that look perfectly correct from being processed. In other words, invalid css almost anywhere in the stylesheet can cause the entire stylesheet to be ignored at times. That is why we link to the external CSS validator to try and help people track this down.

Hope this helps,

KevinH
