I have a question about this: " Thirdly; "I believe that if you have conflicting style specifications, the value in the last listed class is predominant." Actually, the order of the classes in the HTML doesn't make a difference. It's the order of the style sheet that matters. So whichever color you specify last for either of the two classes will be the one taken on by elements that are members of both classes. " So the intepretation of the following is different: <div class="id8877 shoppingCartItem"></div> <div class="shoppingCartItem id8877"></div> Thus if both change the same property the last option allways wins? Now if in the page in the following order I say: 1. item8877 {color:blue;} 2. <div class="item8877">blue</div> 3. item8877 {color:red;} 4. <div class="item8877">red</div> The color written between the divs is what I would actually see. The entire document is not parse and only one style applied for the class item8877, instead the style is applied accoring to step 1 until step 3 happens and then every class item is displayed that way? Thanks, Jeff Loading...
