CSS Hierachy , how to code... 1

[1DMF]

Hello,

I'm having problems getting the hierachy correct to apply some CSS.

I have a div of class 'tit' within it I have a h3 tag I want to style.

I've tried

.tit h3 {}

but that doesn't work.

Please advise.

Hi

For what you described that should work.

I would say the problem is elsewhere, possible a CSS specificity issue.

Advice ? Show us more. HTML and CSS.

The bigger issue is, why do you have a div with a class name like "tit"?

And if you wanted the font on your H3 to be bigger, would you use a class of 'bigTit'?
