problem with css class assignment

[praveenhotha]

I was trying to assign a css class to the table data elements, but the first element is not inheriting the styles from the class properly. Only when I provide a dummy class before the actual class declaration, it gives me the desired result.Why is it so?

 

.Tab3
{

}
.Tab3
{
    COLOR: black;
    position:relative;
}
#ctl 
{
    top:0; 
    left:0;
    }
#ctr
{
     top:0;
     right:0;
}

color should be lowercase...

 

but why not give the table a class (or id) and do this...

 

table.tclass td

{

    color: black;

    position:relative;

}

 

that will save you lots of typing class="xxx" in your html

I changed it to lowercase but its still giving me the same problem..
