[css-d] strong text in different color?

2011-09-07 Thread Chris Morton

Hi, #wraper #updates p strong { color: #FF; } Has a much higher specificity than: strong.teal { color: #007F9E; } You could fix in numerous ways I suppose... Below are a few suggestions. 1. Change line #156 (your strong.teal class above) to: #wraper #updates p strong.teal { ...

Sorry, this is wrong: Just remove #wraper #updates p strong.teal from homepage.css, or I think what I meant to say was: Just remove #wraper #updates p strong from homepage.css, or In other words, if you want the strong text to be teal, then just go with strong.teal {}. Thanks! Micky --

#5 would be the way I'd do it. There was a great presentation (by Nicole Sullivan) posted here last week about the difficulties of specificity war in CSS. Keep your selectors' specificity as low as possible. Kevin __ css-discuss

On Sep 7, 2011 7:02 PM, John j...@coffeeonmars.com I have a PNG-24 with transparency which Win IE 6 shows as having a light blue background. Look for help from the PIE.htc fix for this one. IE6 does not support 24-bit transparency. Odd that it's blue. It should be grey. Tim

[css-d] Trick to Reduce Image File Size

2011-09-07 Thread Jay Tanna
That certainly seems a very good explanation of what one sees. Thank you. Actually the floated h1 is centering but because you have floated it, it automatically shrinks to fit within the contents of that floated element. That is why when you increase the width of the h1, you can see it
