Style Sheets

[Jerry Camel]

Perhaps this is a real newbie question, but...

A new web project in VS gives you a file called Styles.css. I wanted to
define a style for labels of input fields. So I created a new class in
Styles.css called .InputLabel and defined the attributes. I set the table
cells to use that class, but the formatting doesn't kick in. How do you get
the style sheets to work. Obvioulsy there is a step or two that I'm
missing. Thanks.
(Is there a place where you are supposed to tell the page what style.css
file to use?)

Well, you need to specify the styles.css in your head element like any other
stylesheet:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css" />

Got it... I'm new to style sheets...

So why do they give you a default style sheet if they don't include the link
info in the default web form?

Thanks.
