Hi, all

How do I define a css selector for TD elements working only if it is in a
table which has a class ="something" ? Thanks a lot!

Thanks, Hal Rosser.

It works with table.something tr td {color:burple;} . I try to do like:
table.something .another.3rd tr td {color:burple;}
It seems to work for "3rd" only. That is I try to specify a table with a
class name of "something" , "another" or "3rd".

table.something tr td,
table.another tr td,
table.3rd tr td {color:burple;}

Just curious, why would you ask this in a JavaScript newsgroup?

Thanks Grant. It works. Why I ask css questions here is just because
javascript, dhtml and css are always involved each other on the page
authorising. Anyway this questions actually has nothing with javascript,
just expect the help form one newsgroup.

Which is the point of Grant's, probably rhetorical, question.

However, it would be better to get help from the most appropriate group.
CSS questions should be directed to

comp.infosystem s.www.authoring.stylesheets

By the way, the 'tr' in the selectors suggested so far are superfluous. A
TD element must always be a child of a TR element as a basic requirement
of HTML. Nothing is gained by specifying that relationship in the selector.

table.something td,
table.another td,
table.3rd td {color:burple;}

will do just fine and involve less processing by the user agent.
