Why using CSS???

[CrUdE]

Can anyone tell me why we use css, because in IE it works fine but in Opera 6.02 which i have, it shows nothing of my css.

any ideas

I meant is there a way , with a script or something to use css in opera or do i need to color the text etc in html

I looked at your site, and besides your hover links(which should work fine in Opera), you only have this for a style:

-------------------------------------------------
BODY{
scrollbar-face-color:#333333;
scrollbar-arrow-color:#CCCCCC;
scrollbar-track-color:#333333;
scrollbar-shadow-color:#CCCCCC;
scrollbar-highlight-color:#CCCCCC;
scrollbar-3dlight-color:#333333;
scrollbar-darkshadow-Color:#333333;
}
---------------------------------------------------

Scrollbar styling is a Microsoft invention. The W3C CSS recommendation doesn't recognize it. So it only works for IE browsers.

Dude, IE is the browser with the poorest CSS support (of modern browsers that is). You probably do something wrong. Could you show some of it?

open this in IE and afterwards in Opera and look at the menu for example

You have forgotten the hash signs in front of the hex values for colors. ;)

Nice, tnx m8

but one more question, is it possible then that in opera hover links don't work, here's my css for my hover buttons, or is something wrong in here???

A {
font-family : Verdana;
font-size : 12px;
color : #cccccc;
text-decoration : none;
}
A:HOVER {
font-family : Verdana;
font-size : 12px;
color : #003366;
text-decoration : none;
background-color : #999999;
font-weight : bold;
}


when i hover a button the text color and the backgroundcolor remain the same as in A they don't change like in A:HOVER

The problem isn't the CSS this time. It's the HTML. CSS works with inheritance. You have nested UL's in your links. A can only contain inline elements so my guess is that Opera and Moz (doesn't render it either) simply don't want to play because of that.

Get rid of the ULs and you are fine.

I'll try that, thanks for the tip, didn't now about the UL thing :)
