But when i edit <style type="text/css" > line manually without copy and paste it works..dont know how :D anyway problem solved :D

Hi, your code is good and it works for me. Nothing wrong in it.

The problem basically occur because some of the editor will replace ' with ` which trigger the event

<style type=”text/css”>

This code snippet is using ' ”' instead of ' " '. Yes, it's a subtle difference, but it's wrong. (lps pointed this out as well.) You need a true text editor that won't substitute quotes on you.
