Subject: Re: OT: CSS Class vs ID?


On a similar note, as I have been doing this *right now* I wonder if
the fllowing is possible:
(excuse the pseudocode.

<style>
   .mystyle1 { // some styles here }
   .mystyle2 { //a different stule here }

//now change mystyle1 to mystyle 2

   .mystyle1 {  //overwrite with  mystyle2 }



</style>

Basically I want to replace the styles in mystyle1 with those in mystyle2

any ideas?
