A little CSS help please?

[Big Bill]

I can't get this to work;

P.p13
{text-align: center;}
{text-decoration: underline;}
{font-family: verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;}
{font-size: large;}
{font-style: normal;}
{font-weight: bold;}

First off the text is smaller than if I just put "font-size: normal"
or "font-size: medium" and I can have the text either centred or
underlined, I can't get it to be both centred and underlined. I just
can't see what I'm doing wrong!

Hi Bill, You don't put each setting in separate brackets. By doing so, only
the center setting is being associated with the P.p13. You use brackets to
associate any number of settings with a single selector. Here is how it
should have been, just cut and paste this:

P.p13 {
text-align: center;
text-decoration: underline;
font-family: verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-size: large;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
}

Note: You can put the brackets on the same line as the first and last
setting. I just like to put them on separate lines.

Hmmm.

P.p13
{
text-align: center;
text-decoration: underline;
font-family: verdana, Arial, Helvetica, Sans-Serif;
font-size: large;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
}
