Thank you in advance. Maybe I'm just a dim-wit, but for the life of me I can not get the forum.css file to do anything.

My path's are:

cgi-bin/forums/forum.pl
cgi-bin/forums/forum.css
cgi-bin/forums/forums/forums.txt
cgi-bin/forums/forums/template.pl

The  template.pl file has referred to the forum.css file as:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./forum.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../forum.css" type="text/css" media="all" />
and <link  rel="stylesheet" href="/forum.css" type="text/css" media="all" />

But  nothing finds it. I've copied the forum.css file to both directories, and I still get no formatting on the output.

What am I doing wrong??

I put forum.css in the webserver root folder and use /forum.css and that works fine.

Perhaps make sure you're not getting any CSS errors?

Good luck - Angus.
