New Macbook with TextEdit or BBEdit won't style my HTML documents

Previously coding on older PC. Got new Macbook and now cannot perform same work. Stylesheets not recognized in dev tools. Index.html and styles.css are saved in same folder with correct href. Some of these are practice documents from MDN website.

Used to work fine with Notebook on PC.

Appreciate any suggestions or where to turn for help. Apple Support can't help because it's a coding issue.

QuickLook doesn't work for .css files I have a typical UTF-8 encoded file: style.css For some reason quicklook will only display a generic file icon when I hit the space bar instead of the contents of the file like it used to. .css is a very common file type for web development, why isn't quicklook working? If I change the file name to end in .txt or .md it works fine. How can I get quicklook to start working for .css ? MacBook Pro (16in 2021) Confirmed it doesn't work in a VM running Ventura either

Pages on Mac Mini won't open iMac file: "File Format Invalid" I created a Pages v13.1 doc on my iMac 2017 and saved it to my public folder. My Mac Mini 2023 sees the file but Pages v13.1 won't open it saying "ZZ" Can't be opened right now. The file format is invalid. The file can be opened on my iMac 2013 and Pages v11.1 I experience the same issue with Numbers and Key Note documents. The Mac Mini will open jpg and pdf files.
