Basic CSS question

On [url]http://lyricslist.com[/url] I have a list of links that I want to change their color. At the top of the table that they are in (The table of letters under the header, near the google links.) I declared a class, and in the head I put this code:
a.lettersMenu:link,a.lettersMenu:active,a.lettersMenu:visited,a.lettersMenu:hover { text-decoration: none; color : #BDBDE5; font-size: large; }

However, the letters are not affected! I even tried adding the class declaration to every individual TD but that did not work either. According to all I’ve read, this is correct. Why won’t it work?

Thanks.

@NogDogNov 19.2005 — <i>
</i>lettersMenu a {
text-decoration: none;
color : #BDBDE5;
font-size: large;
}

@dotancohenauthorNov 19.2005 — Thanks, NogDog, but that didn't do it either.

So I tried changing the first line to:

lettersMenu a:link,lettersMenu a:active,lettersMenu a:visited,lettersMenu a:hover {

But neither did that. Any other ideas?

@KravvitzNov 20.2005 — NogDog accidentally forgot the dot before "lettersMenu".
.lettersMenu a {
text-decoration: none;
color : #BDBDE5;
font-size: large;
}

@dotancohenauthorNov 20.2005 — Thanks, all sorted out now. I had the elements in the wrong order (link, visited, hover, active). I didn't know that they had a particular order.

Frickin' computers are so darned literal. You'd think they'd be able to read my mind by now. :rolleyes:

Apparently your mind is on NTFS- Samba actually can read it, but not write to it. Try fat32- both windows and linux can read/write to fat 32.
