Are you including that custom.css file in your meta.tpl file?

Also:

#598

is NOT a valid ID - All ID's must start with a letter. Where are you getting that ID from?

Yes the css file is at the bottom of the include.php css files- its been working for a year
I got the 598 using google chrome>inspect element using the slate skin

<div id="widget_id-598" data-id="598" class="sb-widget-content">

so you want to change your CSS ID to:

#widget_id-598

any HTML attribute beginning with data- is an "internal" attribute that is used by the javascript functions - you don't want to reference that in CSS.

Let me know if that helps.
