I have a Div tag in aspx page
<div id="mainDiv">
...........
</div>
Following style is working for it all right except background-color
. Any changes made in following class also work. background-color
is also applied at design time in visual-studio but does not work at run-time. Any reasons?
#mainDiv
{
width:95%;
background-color:Silver;
font-weight:bold;
color:Maroon;
}
Update Instead of background-color:Silver;
, I have tried background-color:Silver !important;
but no difference. However changing color:Maroon;
to color:Blue;
affects
Edit I have no other css files for this page only one css file is linked to it
Edit I had two divs inside the mainDiv
there style was float:left
when I removed float:left
I was able to see the changes in background-color
of mainDiv
. Still do not know the reason
