Applying style from a CSS stylesheet...

I have build a website using an CSS-stylesheet for formatting the text. I recently switched over to HTML editor 2007 but I do not understand how I apply a style to a text.

The existing tags, referencing to the CSS-sheet look good. So the link in the HTML to the stylesheet works fine.

But what I would expect is that I can select a text in the visual editor and select a style in a style listbox containing the styles defined in the stylesheet. The wizzard lets me define a new stylesheet, but that is not what I want. I already have one.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.

You are not doing anything wrong.
The editor does not reference your style sheet at all.

Perhaps a future enhancement to the editor.

Thanks for your quick reply Mike. Saves me a lot of experimenting. I must say I am a bit disappointed about this lack of fuctionality, so I sure hope this will be solved soon. Meanwhile I will get it done by referencing the style via the coding view (not what I wished for).

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
