CSS: Can you tell what wrong?

pfgannon · March 2005

for some reason this peice of CSS won't validate:

jmbody {
background-repeat: repeat-x;
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
text-align:center;
background-image: url(background.gif);
background-color: #242424;
}

I have no idea why this won't validate.
Maybe I just need another set of eyes to go over it?

It looks like it should work...
As long as when you call it you use:
class="jmbody" not id="jmbody"...
Also, for the margin, you can just put 0px the once...

Line: 12

Parse error - Unrecognized : <style type="text/css"> <!-- .jmbody { background-repeat: repeat-x; margin:0px; padding:0px; text-align:center; background-image: url(background.gif); background-color: #242424; }

Thats the error I get when I run it through the w3c validator.
O and I fixed the 2 0px for the margin and got rid of the extra padding style.

*Ill update my original post

Any ideas?

uhh this might sound stupid but you did put </style> at the end of it right? and this code is in the head correct? seems right to me other than that.
