Css question

I have a form with a “Notes” table. This is viewed on the web. I want one cell to have a border around it. For some reasone I can’t get it to work: I have this CSS file, how can I get the part where the css file shows “TD.TabTD” to be applied to that cell. I’ve tried a bunch of things, basically in what do I put in what spot of the HTML Tag Properites table dialog box? Do I just put TD? or .TabTD or TD.TABtD, and do I put that in the class part or the style part?

table {border-width: 0;

		border-style: ridge;	

		border-color: #FFFFFF;

		font-size: 12pt;

		font-family: "arial"}

TD {border-width: 0;

		border-style: ridge;		

		border-color: #FFFFFF;

		font-family: "arial";

		font-weight: bold}

TD.TabTD {background-image: url(…/Image/tab_back2.gif);

		background-position: right;

		border-width: 0;

		border-style: ridge;		

		border-color: #FFFFFF;

		font-family: "arial";

		font-weight: bold}

TD.SpacerTD {background-color: #FFFFFF;

		border-width: 0;

		font-family: "arial";

		font-size: 9pt;

		font-weight: bold;

		text-align: center;

		color: #000000;

		padding-left: 5px}

Put “TabTD” (without the quotes) into the Class slot.

In the Cell HTML Tags section - enter it under Class. You shouldn’t need the TD part… just TabTD.

You wrote: “You shouldn’t need the TD part… just TabTD”.

That’s a little misleading. If the entire string were entered, it would generate a tag looking like this:

That would not respond to formatting placed in this CSS:

TD.TabTD {…}

Nor would:

In neither case could the CSS be adjusted to make it work – the dot is an illegal character in the class attribute.

Sorry? It is late on a Friday, but I don’t understand. I thought I responded with the same answer as you… that TabTD should be entered under Class.

But you didn’t make it clear that that was ALL that should have been entered. The “you shouldn’t have to” part left the option open, and that may have led Andrew to assume that it was okay to enter anything other than the class name.
