That would work... ...unless you're already specifying a uniform style for the TDs: <td class="financial">123</td> <td class="financial">-123</td> <td class="financial">(none)</td> Assuming the numbers and table are being generated by code, I'd could avoid the CLASS conflict this way: <td class="financial" STYLE="color:black;">123</td> <td class="financial" STYLE="color:red;">-123</td> <td class="financial" STYLE="color:black;">(none)</td> But then we've just totally blown a hole through the wall separating content/programming and style. --justin On Fri, 16 Jul 2004, Andrew Fedoniouk wrote: > > The benefit of this approach being that if negative numbers in your > > document are surrounded by parentheses, you can modify the regular > > expression in the stylesheet rather than having to modify your document to > > play nice with a UA's implementation of ":negative-number". > > If you already have some code producing numbers in cells then why you cannot > change it to produce: > <td class="positive">123</td> > <td class="negative">-123</td> > <td class="undefined">(none)</td> > etc. ? > > Just to keep it simple... > > Andrew Fedoniouk. > http://terrainformatica.com
