Is this valid?

Is something like this valid CSS?

.linkleft a:link{
color: #5c1d07;
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 9pt;
text-decoration: underline;
}

.linkleft a:visited{
color: #5c1d07;
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 9pt;
text-decoration: underline;
}
.linkleft a:hover{
color: #B4370E;
font-family: verdana;
font-size: 9pt;
text-decoration: underline;
}

-------------------------------------

<a class="linkleft" href="blah.php">blah</a>

That's exactly what I'm using on my site and it's not working...

Problem fixed.

It would have to be a rule like "a.linkleft", not ".linkleft a" (just posting the solution for future reference if anyone comes upon this thread later; I know your problem has been solved).

The code in the first could have worked, you just needed:

<p class="linkleft"><a href="something.com">Something</a>

To apply it to a block level element or a container of some sort.

(Same point as Vinnie, just so people know the first CSS code is perfectly valid, just applied wrong)

Yep, sorry - I should have posted the fix.
