Hi,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to do something like:

DIV.Header
{
BACKGROUND: yellow;
P.First
{
FONT-SIZE: 10pt;
COLOR: red
}
}

eg. I'd like to be able to simplify my CSS so that I don't lots of long
complex individual CSS rules that are difficult to debug without some clear
hierarchy in the CSS text:

DIV.Header
{
BACKGROUND: yellow;
}
DIV.Header P.First
{
FONT-SIZE: 10pt;
COLOR: red
}
DIV.Header P.First SPAN
{
....
}

add infinitum ...

Cheers,

Chris.

OK - thanks - I thought that might be the answer.
I did a fair amount of testing but I'm not familiar enough with it to be
able to conclusively say that I was testing the right thing!

Cheers,

Chris.

Cheers Al.

But ... still a big no!

Looks like I'm stuck with long lines of CSS rules when trying to set up
embedded hierarchical rule sets.

Chris.
