Hello all, I am facing a problem and I do not know what to do. The CSS styles I define as classes are not showing up on my browser previews, however, in DreamWeaver they look fine, I have ruled out any human error, I really don't think it's me, is there something I'm missing here?
Code:
<style type="text/css">
.960px {
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
.2col {
width: 460px;
margin: 0 10px 0 10px;
float:left;
}
</style>
and these are the divs (they are in the body):
Code:
<div class="960px">
<div class="2col"> hi </div>
<div class="2col">hello </div>
</div>
I have no idea what might be happening! It all seems fine, am I missing a dot somewhere?
PD: I forgot to mention, I have changed the class names like 3 times already, only letters and with numbers and such...
I don't usually start class or id names with numbers. I don't even know if it's technically allowed.
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd ">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml ">
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
.a960px {
border: 1px solid red;
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
.a2col {
border: 1px solid green;
width: 460px;
margin: 0 10px 0 10px;
float:left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="a960px">
<div class="a2col"> hi </div>
<div class="a2col">hello </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
and if you want hi and hello to appear to be on the one line,
Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd ">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml ">
<head>
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
.a960px {
border: 1px solid red;
width: 960px;
margin: 0 auto 0 auto;
}
.a2col {
border: 1px solid green;
width: 460px;
margin: 0 10px 0 10px;
}
#div1 {
float:left;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="a960px">
<div class="a2col" id="div1"> hi </div>
<div class="a2col">hello </div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

No, their not: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html#type-name

yes, that was the problem! Dreamweaver does allow the use of numbers first, that is why I could preview it in the program, but when I tried it in firefox or any other browser it did not work because it is not supported.
