CSS Problem solved

[matauri]

I am having issues with some code, so need some help please :-)

This is for a table using CSS formatting. It displays fine in IE (doh!) but I am having issues with it displaying in Firebird. In Firebird the 'outline table cells' function shows that it is there, but just not showing visually.

Table code:
<table class="1">
<tr><td>99.9% Uptime Guarantee</td></tr>
<tr><td>Web Based Email System</td></tr>
<tr><td>Daily System Backup</td></tr>
<tr><td>24 Hour FTP Access</td></tr>
<tr><td>Catch-All E-mail</td></tr>
<tr><td>Perl 5 / PerlScript</td></tr>
<tr><td>E-mail Alias / Forwarding</td></tr>
<tr><td>PHP 4 / PHP 3</td></tr>
<tr><td>E-mail Autoresponders</td></tr>
<tr><td>Server Side Includes (SSI)</td></tr>
<tr><td>Detailed Web Statistics</td></tr>
<tr><td>Password Protect (.htaccess)</td></tr>
<tr><td>Customized 404 Error Pages</td></tr>
<tr><td>MIME Types Support</td></tr>
<tr><td>Control Panel (cpanel)</td></tr>
<tr><td>Free Scripts</td></tr>
<tr><td>NO Set Up Fee!</td></tr>
<tr><td>Spam Killer</td></tr>
</table>

CSS Code :

table.1
{ text-align: center;
font-family: arial;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 0.5em;
color: #404040;
width: 25em;
background-color: #fafafa;
border: thin #6699CC solid;
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0em; }

}

table.1 td
{ text-align: center;
font-family: arial;
font-weight: normal;
font-size: 0.5em;
color: #404040;
width: 25em;
background-color: #fafafa;
border: thin #6699CC solid;
border-collapse: collapse;
border-spacing: 0em; }

}

Anyone find a problem with it??

If the above style works in IE, its because you may not be having a doctype (or a complete doctype) throwing IE in quirks mode, In quirks mode IE is forgiving and hence accepts the illegal class name "1"

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/grammar.html

Use a proper doctype and change "1" to "one" and your styles will work proper cross browser!

There you go, the importance of one of the longest threads recently here...

Thank you Ranjan...to the rescue again!! :-)

I never realized that the number factor would be an issue. Thanks :-)
