You cannot define your IDs using numbers as the first character. >From W3C: "In CSS 2.1, identifiers (including element names, classes, and IDs in selectors) can contain only the characters [A-Za-z0-9] and ISO 10646 characters U+00A1 and higher, plus the hyphen (-) and the underscore (_); they cannot start with a digit." Change those to something like #eighteenthcentury and that should correct the problem.
