CSS on breadcrumb

[hoosierweb]

I need to change the css for breadcrumb links.. but apparently it will not allow me to do so

 

{$breadcrumbnav}

will not take any of the css, link, visted, or hover css assigned to the td

Did you try put some span tags around it? i.e. <span class="breadcrumbnav">{$breadcrumbnav}</span>

I sure did.. and here is the css I used with no luck

 

<td class="bread" height="30" style="padding-left:5px;"> {$LANG.globalyouarehere}: <span class="blue">{$breadcrumbnav}</span></td>

a.blue:link {color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #FE8A03; font-weight: bold;}
a.blue:active {color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #FE8A03; font-weight: bold;}
a.blue:visited {color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #FE8A03; font-weight: bold;}
a.blue:hover {color: #FFFFFF; background-color: #FE8A03; font-weight: bold;}

 

For the life of me I can not figure out why is doesn't work

 

and in the next cell

<td class="bread" style="text-align:right; padding-right:5px;"><span class="blue">{if $loggedin}{$LANG.welcomeback} {$clientsdetails.firstname}! [url="logout.php"]{$LANG.clientareanavlogout}[/url]{else}{$LANG.please} [url="clientarea.php"]{$LANG.loginbutton}[/url] or [url="register.php"]{$LANG.clientregistertitle}[/url]{/if}</span></td>

only works if I assign the class to each <a

for some reason.. I got it to work, but only by using it assigned with td.blue

 

in all my work before.. the .blue or #blue would have assigned it to anything (and I had done all the above with spans as well

 

Thanks for making me think a little harder
