   I'm trying to migrate my site to a child theme with twentyten as parent.

   The comments header works - the theme is registered in the dashboard correctly.

   I have put @import('../twentyten/style.css') as recommended.

   However any styles I introduce into my child stylesheet somehow invalidates all the styles - the parent styles no longer work and I am left with basic HTML.

   What am I doing wrong ?

   where do you add the new styles?

   make sure, this line
   

   @import url("../twentyten/style.css");

   ends with a semicolon; and add any new styles below it.

   To add to what alchymyth said: @import rules must come before any other style declarations, or the @import is ignored entirely.

   I did everything as required and double checked it. I usually do before I come here.

   I gave up and started rebuilding from scratch.
