Most of these will be simple, hopefully people will just post up anything they've been wondering and someone knowledgable can answer.

My question, very simple as it is, is:

With the below CSS, does whatever is inside the brackets affect only the links inside a list, or is it all links and all lists? Something else maybe? (I believe it's the links inside list tags, otherwise it would be li, a?)
#id li a { }

Cheers

Key:
Blue - CSS

Hi Fred,

It would affect links in lists within the #id..
So for example lets say you have a div called 'content', and wanted to style lists within that div, it would be;
#content li { }

To style a link "a" within that list it would be...
#content li a {
text-decoration: none;
}

And then you can go on further from there, and style the link hover, etc...
#content li a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}

It's going to affect all links in a list item in a list with an id of id.

HTML Code:

<ul id="id">
     <li>Here's a list item. <a href="#">I will get styled</a>!</li>
</ul>

I was completely beaten to it too...

Fred · Post 7 Posted 18-03-09

Haha, as I thought, many thanks all

I'm sure there'll be more questions coming from myself and (hopefully) others that will give you another chance to rush and answer

Hay I remember when I was the coding god around these parts, the fact that Greg and Harry beat me to it, 3 hours before I even read it, well......

Yeah I saw that Soren, but realised it was posted a good 7 years ago!

On that basis, I'm assuming the info is pretty out of date. Cheers for trying to help though

Oh lol. Didn't notice the date on that article

. As far as I know it's only IE6 and lower that doesn't support PNG transparency. But you can still get around it with a few fixes.
