CSS Order Of Precedence April 8, 2006

Posted by Lucanos in : programming, CSS , trackback

Just thought I would share this tidbit, as I was unaware of it, and couldn’t find it when I did a quick search of the net…

When processing CSS rules, it seems that the styles are applied in the following order of precedence:

  1. Style
  2. ID
  3. Class

So any CSS coding applied via the Style attribute will over-write and out-rank any styling applied via the ID. And so forth.

But, this is just the results of my testing. So if anyone knows any better, please do let me know.
