[newbie] Text not being sized

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 09.2009

I’m running an ASP.NET project using mainly html; I’m not sure how to make the text a bit larger, because even when I adjust the tags within the .css file, the text seems to remain of the same size.

[CODE]
Articles.aspx
————
…
<asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderID=”Body” runat=”server”>
[B] <span class=”body”>[/B] This page is still under construction. </span>
</asp:Content>
…

[/CODE]

[CODE]
common.css
————
…
body{
background-position: #fff;
font: 62.5%/2.2em “Lucida Grande”, Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
color: #4b4942;
background: #fff;
font-size: x-large;
}
…
[/CODE]

@jon80authorMay 09.2009 — This does not change the layout either:

common.css
-----------


...

.body{

background-position: #fff;

font: 62.5%/2.2em "Lucida Grande", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

color:Fuchsia;

background: #fff;

font-size: x-large;

}

@jon80authorMay 09.2009 — It does not seem valid to update these in .aspx pages using Masterpages.


Btw, I'm using

Visual Studio 2008 SP1 + .NET 3.5 SP1

Win XP SP2

IIS 5.1

Success!
