body#infoSidebar matches . It seems what you have
is more like ... in which case you need to
use "body #infoSidebar", "body > #infoSidebar", "body div#infoSidebar"
or similar.

[css-d] universal selector horror

[Raymond Rodriguez]

Hello again. I'm doing some reorganization of my CSS for this page.  
I'm focusing on getting only this page to look right and then I'll  
reassign the other pages to the new CSS file.

It's supposed to look like this in the end but I've not been  
successful in my attempt at assigning selectors to the body. There is  
a container on the right-hand side that I named "#infoSidebar" (line  
73 in the CSS file) and I attempted to assign it universally to the  
body selector since it's going to be there (same size and major  
attributes) on every page but none of this seems to do anything.

Here's what I have for the universal stuff for that container:

body#infoSidebar p, body#infoSidebar strong, body#infoSidebar ul,  
body#infoSidebar li {
font: 15px Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
color:#666;
line-height:16px;
text-align:left;
}

body#infoSidebar p {
padding: 10px;
}

body#infoSidebar strong {
font-weight:bold;
}

body#infoSidebar a:link, body#infoSidebar a:visited {
font-weight: bold;
color:#FF9900;
text-decoration:none;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #FF9900;
}

body#infoSidebar a:hover, body#infoSidebar a:active {
font-weight: bold;
color:#FF9900;
border-bottom-style: solid;
}

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Raymond
