I thought I'd best let the list know this is now sorted out (and anyone who may be struggling with the same problem) many thanks to Peter Abramowicz who said this: The reason it was working before with ID's is that ID's are more specific then CLASSES, once you switched to CLASSES the selector wasn't specific enough. One solution would be to modify to the title selector - div#ufwus li.title. For a fuller explanation of specificity check out: http://www.stuffandnonsense.co.uk/archives/css_specificity_wars.html. Now leaving all that aside, wouldn't it make more sense 'semantically speaking' to have the title as a hx element? ie. ul h2{ font: normal bold small Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; color: red; margin:1em .5em 1em; } PeterA. Thanks once more to the list and Peter. 8-) Vicki ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
