Right, well I'm officially confused as hell then. Or more to the point, I
think I have a bug that has nothing to do with what I'm trying to fix, and
even if I eventually manage to work out where to link this css file it's not
going to solve the problem.

What's happening is that when I try and center, left or right align text in
the RTE, it doesn't work - and it changes the drop down next to it to say
"unknown text style" or words of that nature. Everything else works, bolding
text, lists, all that stuff, it's just the text align features, they don't
work. So installing this css isn't going to fix this, hmm? Well then, I
really am back to square one.
