Re: [css-d] Cascade related question

Section 6.4.3 Calculating a selector's specificity http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#specificity There are basically three tallies when figuring out specificity. There's basic tags (a). There's tags with classes (a.nav). and there's tags with id's (a#home). Something with a class is more specific than something without one, so it wins. Something with an id is more specific than something with a class, so it wins. Also, something with two selectors is more specific than something with one selector (div.footer a is more specific than a). If two selectors have the same specificity, the one later in the file wins. This presentation: http://www.slideshare.net/maxdesign/css-cascade-1658158 was really helpful for me to understand specificity.

Lori, I have looked at it in Safari, and the only breakdown I see is Star Home/Intranet/Sitemap are below the line separating the header from the content.

The only thing I see is margin:0 auto; is redundant when you are using
position:absolute (positioning takes precedence).
Other than that we do really need a URL to figure it out. Probably
some other parent element is causing the issue?
