Drupal ID and CLASS names

[escapedf]

Hi all,
Im having some problems with ID and class names that drupal spits out, and i cant change

for example this div:
div id="view view-nodequeue-3" class="view view-nodequeue-3


If i try style this Id or class, it doesnt work:
#view view-nodequeue-3{
padding-left: 5px;
}

or
.view view-nodequeue-3{
padding-left: 5px;
}


Is it the way its named?
I cant change the name of this, so how in CSS must i write it to get it to read the styles?

Thanks!
Dee

Use firebug to find out what is more specific to the bit you are editing.

class="view view-nodequeue-3"
If this class identifier has a space it actually is two classes separated by the space; "view" and "view-nodequeue-3".

Try either of them or concatenate them to make more spcificity weight, i.e. (dot)view(dot)view-nodequeue-3:

.view.view-nodequeue-3{
padding-left: 5px;
}
