I forget what the rules are for naming classes and IDs
This question was answered very succinctly on stackoverflow:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/448981/what-characters-are-valid-in-css-class-names#answer-449000
Hope this helps,
Very succinctly ? By the end of reading it, I was more confused
than when I started ! It even starts with a glaring error :
a name must start with an underscore (_), a dash (-), or a letter(a–z),
followed immediately 1 by a letter or underscore
which would rule out <element class="A1"> (leading
letter NOT followed by letter or underscore).
However, pointing validator.w3.org at
http://web-consultants.org.uk/sites/tests/A1.css
which contains
.A1 {visibility : inherit}
the validator says "All is well"; I would trust the validator over
Stackoverflow any day !
