<ul class="subsubsection" id="domaener">

Luigi Donatello Asero · Jun 30, 2006

Hello,
How do I write ul class and id in an external style sheet?
Are the forms
#domaener.subsubsection ul {
}
and
<ul class="subsubsection" id="domaener">
both accepted
or perhaps wrong?

Wrong, that points to a UL that is a *child* of element ID "domaener"
and class "subsubsection".

if you want to style the UL then

#domaener.subsubsection {...} is want you want. The UL is not needed
because only *one* element can be id "domaener", one would write

element.className {...}

to be more specific because you *can* have more than one element that is
class="subsubsection".

instead of "subsubsection" it might be neater to use XHTML2 style nesting.
For example, this selector matches a section in a section in a section:

..section .section .section

Don't what that has to do XHTML, CSS2.1 does nesting selector just dandy.

..doThis {...}
..doThat {...}

..doThis .doThat { ... can be something different ...}

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>

<style type="text/css">
.doThis { color: red; }
.doThat { color: green; }
.doThis .doThat { color: blue;}
</style>

</head>
<body>
<div class="doThis">I am red</div>
<div class="doThat">I am green</div>
<div class="doThis">I am red
<div class="doThat">I am blue</div>
<div class="doThis">I am red again</div>
</div>
<div class="doThat">I am green
<div class="doThat">I am still green</div>
<div class="doThis">I am still red</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Don't get Luigi confused with XHTML, he is dangerous enough in HTML

football? Soccer--yes, American Football--No. But what does this have
to do with your CSS question.

Maybe, but they're good for other malardies.

The last part is okay but you should do something like this:

#domaener { font-size:5500px; }
ul .subsubsection { color:chartreuse;background:vermillion; }

in the stylesheet.

You talk of ducks and grass, ducks are efficient in water, grass
is liked by cows.
