Problem with Defining divs

[Ingridskrampe]

Help!

I am about half way through the CSS 2 tutorial and can't seem to figure out why there is no realignment when I attempt to define my divs in the ROOT.CSS file.

My divs are labeled such:

 

The ROOT.CSS text is below

}

#navigation (width:220px;top: 20px;left:opx;

)

 

#CenterDOC {position: absolute; left: 245px; padding: 15px 0 20px 0px; /*top right bottom left*/}

 

 

also: other CSS tags that I put into the ROOT.CSS file are working fine, just not the div tags.

 

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Ingrid

Your css code should not be using (parentheses).

Use {Braces} around the CSS rules.

Also you don't need to add px after 0. Zero is zero whatever the measurement.

#navigation (width:220px;top: 20px;left:opx;

And this looks like the letter 'o', not a zero.
