select+class+opera 7.23 problem

IE and Mozilla allow color and background-color on option. Opera does not
AFAIK.

So, there isn't any way to solve it. It's a pity :-(

I think you better ask that in alt.html.critique (but they'll
look at your code too!) or in
comp.infosystems.www.authoring.site-design.

Thank You. I'll go there.

Hi!.

I have this simple class:

.red {
color:#900;
}

Bad idea. The whole idea of CSS is to keep the presentation out of the
content. If you're going to call a class "red", then you're going to
have tags in your HTML with

class="red"

which means you're specifying the color in the HTML. Then, if you
decide you want to change the color, you'll have to change the CSS to

.red { color: #009; }

which will look silly, and then you'll change

class="red"

to

class = "blue"

everywhere in your HTML document.

You ought to name the class according to its *function*, whether it's
"errortext" or "warning" or "molecular-formula" or "ingredient-list"
or whatever.

and using with <select class="red"....
IE, FF interpreting correctly, but Opera not. Show only gray texts. Why ?
