different attributes for the same thing

Sent by Alex Beston on 1 October 2004 00:12


Hi all

I was wondering if its possible to get a class with generic content.

ie, if you have 7  text boxes all with the same structure, but with 
different colors.

if it is does anyone know what the syntax is ?

..genericBox{
        text-align: left; 
        margin: 10px 10px  0px 10px ;
        padding: 10px;
        border-style: solid;
        border-width: 2px;  
}

#lyrics{
      color: white;
      border-color: #3333dd;  
      background-color: #66CC99;
}

#about{
      color: red;
      border-color: black;  
      background-color: white;
}

<div id ="lyrics" class="genericBox">some text ...</div>
<div id ="about" class="genericBox">some text ...</div>

is this the only way to do it? does the "inherit" reserved word have any 
use here?

like

#lyrics{
    inherit .genericBox;
    color: white;
      border-color: #3333dd;  
      background-color: #66CC99;
}

TIA,

Alex
