Hmm. I, too, would expect that rule to work as intended. It sure
looks specific enough - unless you have a rule that includes an ID
in the chain to TD?

Do you have a sample page we could look at?

FWIW - I have a "basic styles" CSS I start out with based off the subject
reset. I put EM sized padding on a simple TD selector that seems to
work just fine.

Cordially,
David
