Example
A more specific rule for cells in a table that has the CSS property “color: red” (which colors text
in the cells red) could be, for example:
l A rule for the text color of all table cells (td elements), for example:td {color:
green; }.
l A rule for the text color of table cells with a certain class, for example.green {color:
green; }
l A rule for the text color of a table cell with a certain ID, for example:#greentext {
color: green; }
l An inline style rule (local formatting) added to the HTML tag of a particular table cell, for
example:<td style="color: green;">...</td>
Each of these rules is more specific than the previous rules. All of these rules are more specific
than the rule that applies to the table as a whole.
Determining the order in which style sheets are read
For each section, the style sheets are applied in a certain order. The styles in each following
style sheet add up to the styles found in previously read style sheets. When style sheets have a
conflicting rule for the same element, class or ID, the last style sheet ‘wins’ and overrides the
rule found in the previous style sheet.
The order in which style sheets are applied, can be changed per section:
1.
On the Resources pane, expand the Contexts folder, expand the folder of the
corresponding context and then right-click the template.
2.
Click the tab Includes.
3.
Click a CSS file and use the Up and Down buttons to change the order in which the style
sheets are read.
4.
Note: Moving a style sheet up in the list gives it less weight, because style sheets read
later will override previous ones in case of conflicting rules.
Styling text and paragraphs
There are numerous ways to format text in a template. You can apply a certain font, make text
bold, transform it to uppercase, center it, color it, etc.
