why does the font size work, but not the color?
(in external .css file, pulled in with link)
.blue14 { font-color: red; font-size: 20pt }
(edit: fixed it, the BOOK was wrong...it's just "color" not "font color"...)
(couldn't delete this thread, tho? humpf!)You do not use the word font with the color attribute
.blue14{
color:red;
font-size:20pt
}

it was the error in THEIR book...
see if this is another one:
p : {font-family:"jurassic"; font-size:60pt}
"sets all test in bold in a paragraph to 60pt jurassic. this effect will only some into play if the browser encounters a bold container pair in a paragraph. a paragraph or a bold tag on it's own is not sufficient to invoke this text effect"
all that happens is that ALL <p> text goes to 60pt...
wether or not there are bold tags within the paragraph, everything in the <p> is set to 60pt...and only in ff, ie simply ignores it...
pff, cheap books!Should be something like this
<style>
p {font-family:"jurassic"; font-size:30px}
p b{font-family:"jurassic"; font-size:30px}
</style>
<p>Mary had a <b>little</b> lamb</p>
<p>But she went and lost it</p>
The font would not work or me because I don't have jurassic
Buy a better book
That's why if you REALLY want to know about it you go to the source (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://w3c.org">http://w3c.org</a><!-- m -->).Originally posted by Mr J

lol, yeah...or sign up to a good forum with cool dudes such as yourself can help you out!
thx Mr J, i had sort of tried the "p b" but with the colon "p:b" thinking that that might be it, reading the text, it was only when a bold tag had been reached inside a <p> tag...
maybe it was a typo and the ":" should have been a "b"...
