Welcome to IWETHEY!

New If you target newer browsers:
Feel free to dip into child selectors, which give you so much more control over your pages and save so much typing it's really incredible. Can't recommend it enough (until you have to allow for IE4--then it sucks).

Anyway, a child selector is a declaration like:

table.results td { font: normal 600 Arial }

The "td" being the child. This will apply the font characteristics to only those td cells which are children of a table element with a class of "results". This means you only have to declare the class of the table element, not that of each td within that table. Neat.

Many fears are born of stupidity and ignorance -
Which you should be feeding with rumour and generalisation.

New W3C's CSS spec....
Google for the URL. Prolly mentioned in my old posts or as CSS Level 2 Spec [link|http://twiki.iwethey.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/UserContentCSS|the TWIT UserContentCSS topic links]. Not obvious. But there.

New CSS2 + Eric Meyer aka God
It's in the [link|http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2|CSS2 spec] at w3. Read the whole [link|http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/selector.html|chapter 5]--can't wait for sibling selectors to come into widespread acceptance in browsers. WOW! That would make my day.

The other indispensable tool for CSS is Eric Meyer. His [link|http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/|personal website] has a lot of good stuff on css--demos in the "edge" subsection. You might also want to order his [link|http://www.ericmeyeroncss.com/|recent book], which opened my eyes to the usefulness of child selectors, among other things.

HTH!
