<span> question.

[eharris]

Is it possible to include more than one CSS call into a single <span> element?

Suppose you wanted to modify a pre-defined class element to include bold and italic. Within your HTML you could include <span class=&quot;bold&quot;> (assuming you defined &quot;bold&quot, but then how do you also include the &quot;italic&quot; you desired?

Can you do <span class=&quot;bold, italic&quot;> or something like that?

Assistance is appreciated.

<style>

.red {color:red;}
.attention {font-weight:bold;font-size:16pt}

</style>

That easy. Super, thank you.

I assume this solution will work with a foobar.css imported style sheet?

Thanks again.

I'm not sure the the use of multiple classes is cross-browser compatible. A more portable solution is to nest the spans like this:

<span class=&quot;attention&quot;><span class=&quot;red&quot;>css test</span></span>

I know it's cumbersome, but it more reliably portable. I've had problems with multiple-class use. Tracy Dryden

Why not <span class=&quot;attention&quot; id=&quot;red&quot;>Css</span> ?

Using a class and id will work, but I'm not sure how portable that is either. Besides, don't your style names have to start with # to use them in id=&quot;...&quot;? Wouldn't that mean that you couldn't ALSO use them in a class=&quot;...&quot;? Tracy Dryden
