asp:LinkButton and CssClass

[=?Utf-8?B?QWxleA==?=]

I have an asp linkbutton declared as follows:
<asp:LinkButton ID="LinkButton1" runat="server" CssClass="tt">ASP Link
Button</asp:LinkButton>

My CSS classes are declared as follows:
a.tt
{
color:Black;
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px dashed Blue;
}
a.tt:visited {
color: Black;
}

a.tt:hover
{
background:#F0F8FF;
color:Black;
cursor:help;
}

But when I run the page, none of the a.tt styles are being displayed. The
strange thing is, when I add a regular html <acontrol on the page, it works
fine.

that's odd - I just created a page with just the link button, copied from
your code below, and added a stylesheet with your css code - -
It seemed to work just fine - - at least the main class - - since I have no
code for it to go anywhere, I can't verify the 'visited' css

You're right. The code would have worked. I took a look at my aspx code and I
noticed I didn't have a close ">" in the DOCTYPE declaration. It's all good
now.

This is so strange. It's a very big page, with tabs and grids and every
control you can think of, and the only one that didn't work was the link
button....
