I have this web page:

I am trying to use some CSS3 elements here. I have a div with
id="nav", and everything is working fine. (for the nav list at top
on the white background)
But, when I change that div instead to a <nav> CSS3 thing, the white
BG doesn't work.
Here's that page:
http://weinraub.ehclients.com/home/index_css3
They are both using the same style sheet:
http://weinraub.ehclients.com/styles.css
That's your mistake. In a style sheet #nav refers to an element with
id="nav". If you want to refer to an _element_ nav you should not use
#. The same as if you want to refer to h1 elements. Likewise there is
a difference between footer and #footer.
I had this happen on a previous project, where I used <footer></
footer> and my style rules didn't work that way, but when I used
<div id="footer"></div> it worked fine. What am I missing here?
