Multiple selectors in rule

Hi,

I've tried to do this but it does not work.

table.anmeldung tr + td { font-weight:bold; }

I'm looking for an easy way to bolden the left column in this table:

Any comments?

Thanks a lot,
Axel

(table element that belongs to the class 'anmeldung')). Since td and
tr do not occur as siblings, this matches nothing.
You might be looking for

table.anmeldung tr td:first-child { font-weight: bold; }

You might look into using the 'th' element instead though.

That's what I did in an analagous situation: headings are in
the first column and data is in rows:

Surprisingly enough, it appears to work!

table elements, but rather children of an often invisible tbody child,
so use

table.anmeldung tbody tr td:first-child { font-weight: bold; }
I meant as element in the markup in place of <td>.

"lineage", you know that the TD must be a descendant of the TABLE so you
can get want you want simply with the *descendant* selector:

table.anmeldung td:first-child { font-weight: bold; }
