Thanks, you guys so helpful. I thought external css' format must somehow like this #example { } I figured out later then , it can be like example { } without # again, thanks
It can't be example{}. It must be .example{} (for a class) or #example{} (for an id). Only existing html tags can be addressed by using ul, li, b, table... without a . or a #
you could aslo clean up your page a bit more by making an external .js file instead of clunking up your head tag vanessa.
