Inheritance of properties using ID’s
When using an ID of a selector, always remember that the ID inherits the properties unless redefined in the selector.
So, if you have
td {
Background-image:url(image1.jpg);
Background-color:#000000;
}
td#one{
color:#444
}
That the “one” id will inherit the background-image and color from the td selector. Either those properties need to be redefined, or set to none, e.g.
Td#one {
Background-image:none;
Background-color:#ffffff;
color:#444;
}
Note:For a repeaint color hex code, writing it in this format#444 is shorthand to save code space if the digits keep on repeating.
