You're going to have to let us see your style sheet.
What is in screen.css on your local host?
edit: What is in screen.css on the other person's host?

BTW, I've found similar CSS attributes on other peoples sites that don't work when I try to impliment them on mine. So far it's always been a non-standard attribute. I assume in order to get it to work, the original developer must've had something additional enabled/installed on his/her server.

 
This:
<STYLE TYPE="text/css" MEDIA="screen">@import "http://www.127.0.0.1/css/screen.css";</style>

should probably be this:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css" MEDIA="screen">@import "http://127.0.0.1/css/screen.css";</style>

Remove the www from in front of the IP address.

Also, unless you are running a webserver locally, you are not going to be able to see the CSS. If not, just edit it to be a relative path, such as:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css" MEDIA="screen">@import "../css/screen.css";</style>
