Sagar,

Think of it like declarations in nested scopes in a programming language.

The outer (session level) scope applies except where overridden by a
redeclaration in an inner (media level) scope.

This applies to a lot, but not all, attributes. (The ones that may be used
at "both" session and media level. IMO it *ought* to apply to them all, but
that is another story.) It also applies to c=.

       Thanks,
       Paul
