@ span tags

[ascalon]

Hi everyone, I am new, and I am trying to use the span-tag in my pages (for instance the class="makeBold">... ),

but it would not appear in the actual html-page.

I thought it might be my doc but when I change any text in the index.html, it changes the text in the browser, too.

Any ideas on this? thanks

In this example, you have an extra, unnecessary ">":

 

class="makeBold">...

 

it should be:

 

...

Yes, sorry typing default in this post. I have that right in my index.html page. still no change.

Do you have 'makeBold" defined in your CSS? It'll only make your test bold it you put:

 

.makeBold {font-weight: bold;}

 

into your stylesheet.

 

And in general, unless it's for a one-time styling event, inline styles should be avoided - use the external stylesheet.

Just check your CSS code - you've either:

 

1. made a typo.

2. haven't linked to your css file properly - assuming you used an external style sheet.
