(HTML & CSS) My class tag won't work. **Resolved**

[msimmons]

In my style in the head of the document I have:

.button (background-color:#cccccc; text-decoration:none; text-align:center;}

In the body down below I have the elements:

<span class="button">test</span>
<a href="#" name="reservationfind" id="reservationfind" class="button" onClick="findRes()">Find</a>
<a href="#" name="reservationnew" id="reservationnew" class="button" onClick="findRes()">New</a>
<a href="#" name="reservationNavBack" id="reservationNavBack" class="button" onClick="resNav('back')"><<</a>
<a href="#" name="reservationNavForward" id="reservationNavForward" class="button" onClick="resNav('forward')">>></a>

they are unaffected.
What gives?

What property isn't working? If it's the text-align then it shouldn't as you are trying to apply them to inline elements. I think it will only work in block elements like DIV and P.

But also are those curly brackets or just plain parenthesis, 'cause they should be curley braces: { and }.

It was every property. But it works now. The problem was I led it with a paren "(" and closed it with a bracket "}" I knew they were supposed to be brackets so not sure what happened and didn't notice while I was trying to get it to work (had the same problem w/javascript once).
Thanks a million,

No problem, but I am going to have to charge you

Kinda like my co's DSL service... once it was down and we had to call them out. Turns out it was something stupid (and our fault) so they charged us for comming out.
