show your css code

[brndn]

.brdcrumb {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 9px;
font-weight: normal;
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #003333;
border: none;
}

what DOCTYPE are you using?

[brndn]

a file called intranet.css

it is imported into the html file????

why do you ask?

[bwh2]

no, i'm asking what DOCTYPE. the DOCTYPE is located at the beginning of the html file. for instance, view this page's source and look at the first line.

// i just capitalize DOCTYPE b/c it's just standard practice. i'm not shouting it.

sorry if i gave you the wrong impression, i was just curious, i have not played with css before and thought that there could be a simple fault in my file type.

thanks for your help though i have managed to locate the problem.

p.brdcrumb {
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 9px;
font-weight: normal;
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #003333;
border: none;
}


should work.

as long as you link to it correctly.

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="stylesheet.css">

for an external stylesheet in the same folder as your page.

if its in the head, add <style></style> either side of the styling code.

Oh those links in the paragraph..links should have special classes assigned or selectors defined in the css , they are not treated as text (in what regards color and text-decoration).
