Assigning class question

[Mark_M]

Hello, I'm trying to figure out why my class in div won’t work. Shouldn’t everything in-between the <div> tags take on the class? …see belowcss

.test a {	color:blue;	background-image:url(images/big_button_right.gif); }.test a:hover {color:green;}.test .l { left:  0; background-image: url(images/big_button_left.gif); }.test .l:hover { left:  0; background-image: url(images/big_button_left.gif); }

works

<div class="test"><a href="http://www.google.com">hggff</a><div><a class="l" href="http://www.google.com"></a><div></div>

doesnt work

<div class="test"><a href="http://www.google.com">hggff</a><div class="l"><a href="http://www.google.com"></a><div></div>

Thanks,Mark

[Err]

css:

.test a {	color:blue;	background-image:url(images/big_button_right.gif); }.test a:hover {color:green;}.test a.l:link { left:  0; background-image: url(images/big_button_left.gif); }.test a.l:hover { left:  0; background-image: url(images/big_button_left.gif); }

html:

<div class="test"><a href="http://www.google.com">hggff</a><div class="l"><a href="http://www.google.com"></a></div></div>

And the div's are messed up. Three opening tags and one closing. Which one is it closing? Shall I guess or do you want to?

Thanks for the reply guys, that was a simple fix. Also at the time I didn’t see I was writing my div tags wrong.

Sure.
