CSS

[LeoLionHeart]

Hi there I have a few questions on Cascading Style Sheets.

I didn't have a style sheet at first in my project but I have now referenced one, such as in the head part of my html:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mainstyle.css">

In my mainstyle.css I have the following class:

.bodyText {
color: #666666;
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
font-weight: normal;
line-height: 16px;
}

I have now gone back to my aspx form and for my controls I have gone to the property CSSClass and set the property to bodytext. However, the text still seems to be Times Roman. Also, for the text which are not in a label/textbox and are only in a <td> how do I make the CSSClass equal to bodytext. Or do I set the class to bodytext.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks

leo.

<table class=bodyText>
<tr> 'CSS Inherited
<td> 'CSS Inherited
<asp:TextBox cssClass=otherClass /> 'CSS Overridden
</td>
<td class=anotherClass> 'CSS Overridden
Hello
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
Hi There 'this text will be bodyText
</td>
</tr>
</table>

so as you can see you can apply the css to the whole table and override where needed.

in HTML use class=
in ASP controls use cssClass=

same thing, same file, just semantics.
