IE Mobile fails to load web page if page uses CSS that includes an
"@import" statement
[I am using a T-mobile Dash running Windows Mobile 5.0 SmartPhone with
Messaging and Security Feature Pack. Version 5.1.342 (Build
15097.3.0.1). ]
Some simple web pages do not load. They simply show some small number
of KB (4-20KB say) on the progress bar and then stop. The page never
displays although the throbber continues.
This is using the version if IE mobile that came with the dash (on
WM5).
When I say "simple" I mean a simple HTML page with no flash,. No PHP
I suspect this is NOT a network problem as the same pages load fine if
I use Opera instead of IE.
An example of a simple page that will not load in IE mobile for me is:
http://www.d20srd.org/
>From the same site though, the following page loads FINE:
http://www.d20srd.org/extras/characterRecord.htm
I copied the problem page (http://www.d20srd.org/) to my own web server
so I could investigate the problem
It uses a CSS:
http://www.d20srd.org/styles/home.css
The first line of this CSS is:
@import "main.css";
I found that if and only if I removed this first line, then IE mobile
on my WM5 device loads the page just fine. I also verified that while
the non-problem page does use CSS, that CSS has NO imports.
So one conclusion is that my IE mobile is choking on CSS imports.
So my questions are:
[*]Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?
[*]Do other WM5 SmartPhone users have a problem loading the example
problem page using IE on their dashes of other devices?
[*] What other information can I provide that would help diagnose this
issue?
