The above code is nested in <style>.Code:.text_gray { color:#cccccc }
And the below code is in main body.
I am expecting the color of the text "2004-08-25" is gray, but it actually is default color "black."Code:<span class="text_gray"> 2004-08-25 </span>
Why doesn't this "class" work?
If you visit at http://220.89.242.19:8500/test/003/home/index.cfm ,
you will understand more clearly about it.
Thanks in Advance
might it be the underscore ... perhaps try a hyphen?
Maybe span.text_gray { color:#cccccc } ? And, yeah, try removing the underscore too.
I changed "text_gray" into "textGray" in both <style> and <body>.Originally Posted by earther
But it(2004-08-25) is still black, not gray at http://220.89.242.19:8500/test/004/home/index.cfm .
I couldn't access that url, no doubt because of the non-standard port and I'm behind a firewall. So unfortunately I can't look at the problem in context with the page.
But generally I have found that when a style is not displaying as expected there is an issue with the cascade. You'll need to check that there is no other style that is being inherited in that particular instance - and overriding your .textGray class.
Do you have Dreamweaver MX 2004? That has a built-in feature that lets you know all the other styles affecting a particular element. (In the Tag palette under the Relevant CSS tab.)
mate. :-)
Yes, I have it(DW MX 2004).
Where is the Relevant CSS tab?
If you can't see the Tags palette then go to Window > Tag Inspector and make sure it is checked - if not, check it - and you will see it with your palettes on the right. Expand that (Tags) palette and you will see a tab called Relevant CSS.
In your document, in Design view (I work in Split view so I have access to both Design and Code views at any given moment) click on (select) the element/tag you want to inspect. Then look at the Tags palette under the Relevant CSS tab and see if you can work out what's happening.

I solved this problem by removing the space remove after the dot.
Thank you to all
LOL!! After all that, it's a typo!!!!
