CSS Reserved words
C Hawke Started conversation Apr 24, 2004
Now I was sure that such a thing as a list of reserved words for CSS should have been an esay thing to find, but after 10 minutes or so I had no luck so I thought I'd post here.
I am guess that "NAV" is one as a custom class .NAV was not liked at all by Gecko based browsers (IE of course worked fine as it must ignore such things)

I just gave it a try, a ".NAV" class worked fine for me in Mozilla 1.6. Are you sure you don't have some other kind of syntax error, typo, or mismatch of some sort?

Nope - changed it to .navigation and it worked totally differently - I'd like to say "worked right" but there are still things I need to sort - but it was the way it acted totally differently with a name change that got me thinking.
Regardless (and BTW thanks), there must be a list somewhere of words not to use for classes.
