CSS question

[redk]

Hello,

I'm new to WYM, sorry if the question sound very noob.

In the CSS if I use the default (.important p) :

/* PARA: Important */
.important p /* p[@class!="hidden-note"] */ {
color: red; font-weight: bold;
/* color: red; font-weight: bold; border: 2px solid red; */
}

I never get the red text. But if I use (p.important):

p.important /* p[@class!="hidden-note"] */ {
color: red; font-weight: bold;
/* color: red; font-weight: bold; border: 2px solid red; */
}

It does work, am I missing something somewhere?

Thanks.
