Question

I am starting to use the LESS CSS stylesheet language to write my CSS.

This is what I have in the HTML file

<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="style.less" />
<script src="http://lesscss.googlecode.com/files/less-1.0.18.min.js"> </script>

The problem that I am facing is that every time I am previewing my website in Chrome, I receive this error:

Uncaught Error: NETWORK_ERR: XMLHttpRequest Exception 101

Is there something I am doing wrong? I understand that I will need to compile my .less file into a .css file for browsers to read, but I should be able to at least preview my website, right?

Thanks so much for your help!

Answer 1

Presumably you are reading your HTML document directly from your local file system. Don’t. Install a web server locally and use that for testing. It will more accurately reflect the final live environment (where URIs beginning with / and lots of security features work differently).
