The CSS checker tells you. A class name cannot start on a number. I wasn't aware browsers cared though.

Thanks for your quick reply I made the changes that the validator told me. That was a different one than I was using and seemed to catch more. Thanks for the link.

Here is the updated results with no change to the site.

Hmmm, it worked when I tried it locally. Must brood.

What validator did you use earlier, just out of interest?

[pandy]

You forgot the change the class name in the HTML.

The HTML still uses <div class="1darkbrowninfobar"> pandy was quicker.

And thanks that fixed it. Now I can get back to work. While I'm here, how do I specify link color. I will google too, I just like to hear from a real person.

Thanks again

Christian, thats funny. That is the validator I was using and it was clear. Now, I have errors. Don't get me wrong. The error is probably with me.

Note that bit that says the order is important. For normal links you want this order.

a:link
a:visited
a:hover

If you put :visited last, it will win over :hover, so to speak. When you put the mouse pointer over a visited link it's both visited and hovered at the same time. The last declared declaration will be applied (the cascade).

If you have named anchors, <a name="blah">, they will also be affected by this in modern browsers other than IE. To avoid that you need a little more complicated selectors, but let's take one step at the time.

CSSCheck is good. But it's only CSS 1. Feel free to nag Liam about upgrading it.

Thanks, I know it is hard to tell but I am not an expert coder. My dad was/is a computer programmer and I took on the design side of the computer gene. But I think at 32, it is time for be to get serious with the code if anyone is going to take me seriously with the internet. Photoshop can only get you so far. I have a long ways to go. I'd like to learn java, ajax, flash, xml...well you get the drift. I hope you guys are ready to help me learn.

Oh and I will be sure to drop a line to him...

Sure thing. I'll help you. But only if you teach me to make pretty pictures - I tend to resort to clipart.
