yeah - I only had the text over the top of the graphic to test out your
suggestions for 'siblings' - otherwise, that
wasn't relevant at
all...I thought you understood that.
As for the solution...indeed that is the solution and that's what I get
for having GoLive generate the css for me. Thankfully, I have figured
out using css with Quanta and I sort of prefer it anyway - they've got a
beautiful interface to css editing.
Now Joseph...I really appreciate you cluing me in and indeed you are
correct...media="screen" was the problem and apparently that is the
default of css when it's not specified media="all" which is likely why
the examples that I was working through from the c3.org site did the
same thing.
If I had one regret...I wish you could figure out my stupidity earlier
in threads.
;-)
Thanks
