I have a master page and a content page but the stylesheet isnt getting
applied like how it looks in visual studio design view.

The master page is defined like this:

<%@ Master Language="VB" CodeFile="MasterPage.master.vb"
Inherits="MasterPage" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title>Overbored.com</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="StyleSheet.css" />
</head>
<body>
    <div id="wrapper">
        <form id="Form1" runat="server">
              <div id="header">
                <span class="title">Overbored.com</span>
                <span class="breadcrumb">Todo: Breadcrumb will go
here...</span>
              </div>
              <div id="content">
                <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="MainContent" runat="server">
                </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
              </div>
             <div id="navigation">
                <span class="title">Overbored.com</span>
                  <div id="Div1">
                    <asp:Menu ID="menu1" DataSourceID="SiteMapDataSource1"
runat="server"></asp:Menu>
                    <asp:SiteMapDataSource ID="SiteMapDataSource1"
ShowStartingNode="false" runat="server" />
                  </div>
            </div>
        </form>
    </div>
    <div id="footer">
        <a href="http://www.overbored.com/Portal">http://www.overbored.com</a>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

The content page is defines like this:

<%@ Page Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/MasterPage.master"
AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Login.aspx.vb" Inherits="Login" %>

<asp:Content ID="LoginContent" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent"
Runat="Server">

    <div>
        <asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" BackColor="#EFF3FB"
BorderColor="#B5C7DE" BorderPadding="4"
            BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px" Font-Names="Verdana"
Font-Size="0.8em"
            ForeColor="#333333">
            <TitleTextStyle BackColor="#507CD1" Font-Bold="True"
Font-Size="0.9em" ForeColor="White" />
            <InstructionTextStyle Font-Italic="True" ForeColor="Black" />
            <TextBoxStyle Font-Size="0.8em" />
            <LoginButtonStyle BackColor="White" BorderColor="#507CD1"
BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px"
                Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="0.8em" ForeColor="#284E98" />
        </asp:Login>
   </div>

</asp:Content>

}
#content p {
    font-size: 80%;
    line-height: 1.6em;
}

In visual studio designer the content page looks right but when i run the
application the master page style is not applied. The content of the master
page is applied but not the style.

Please help!
