Hi, I'm having trouble linking to the html-elements.css file through .info; I'm using the How to build your own sub-theme (6.x) and step 8 doesn't seem to work:

# Modifying Zen core stylesheets: If you decide you want to modify any of the other stylesheets in the zen folder, copy them to your sub-theme's folder before making any changes. Also, be sure the new stylesheet is included in your .info file.

For example, copy zen/zen/html-elements.css and rename it as foo/html-elements.css. Then edit foo/foo.info and change:
;stylesheets[all][] = html-elements.css
to:
stylesheets[all][] = html-elements.css

I've edited all the other things in .info that was requested but i can't seem to get this to work;

I have the same question. If you figure out what to do, please let me know.

Also haven't been able to figure this out, experiencing same issue with 6.3, unable to point html-elements.css elements to a zen sub-theme.

Have you cleared the theme registry?

.info files cache and only refresh when the registry is cleared - go to the Performance settings and clear the cache.

I'm seeing a similar issue with trying to modify the style.css of a sub-theme spawned from LiteJazz.

I've cleared my browser cache, and the Performance cache several times. But still couldn't get the modified CSS file to work.

OK, I managed to figure out... I've got the Themeswitcher module installed, and it seems to retain the old(base) theme even though I changed the default theme at the admin/build/theme page.
Manually changing the theme via the Themeswitcher solves the problem.

I was having similiar issues.

I ended up going into the sub-themes .info file and removing the ; before the html-elements.css.
