Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

When I try to send the attached html file to my browser client, using the WEB TRANSMIT PAGE command, I get errors due to the style css content. I know the syntax is basically sound as I can open the file directly with my (Firefox) browser and the style description is correctly applied.
In particular the "padding: 3px" code line throws up an error "Padding: Different type already declared". If I remove the padding reference I yhen get an error from the button styling - "incorrect operator". Is the MMBASIC getting confused with the curly brackets used in the css content and those reserved for variables that are replaced by their r values?

Any assistance would be appreciated

Yes, you need to use two opening curly brackets which will be converted to a single bracket for the browser. You don't need to worry about the closing bracket.

For example:

.Device1{{
padding:3px;
color:black;
background-color:{{BG1$};
border:black 2px solid;
}
