msie doesn't like my css - help needed!

[wwww]

I created a website with php and css, which displays perfectly in Mozilla, but does not in Internet Explorer.

The problem are the following tags, which are just being ignored by msie6, even if they run perfectly in my mozilla.

_____________________________
PHP file:
<titel>Willkommen!</titel>
<p><text>blablablahhh</text></p>

____________________________
the "titel" and "text" tags are defined in my css file like this:

titel { font-family: verdana, sans-serif, arial; font-size: 10pt; color: #ff0000; font-weight: bolder}

text { font-family: verdana, sans-serif, arial; font-size: 9pt; color: #009933}
____________________________

That's the correct way of using that css function, isn't it?

Is anyone out there who has an idea or experience with that kind of problem?

Thanks a lot!

no sorry, that is incorrect.

you use:

<span class="titel">Hello</span>
and

<span class="text">Icehole has the best names</span>

I haven't worked with php, but this is what I do in html.

The CSS file could have this:

#test1 { font-family: arial, verdana; font-size: 9pt; color: #cccccc; text-decoration:none; }

Then to use that in html, I would do this:

<div id="test1">This is a test</div>

Hope that helps.

Hmm, looks like my tutorial at w3schools.com wasn't that great.

However, it works now, thanks for your help guys!

hmmm, "titel" is spelled wrong, it's title!
So if the page's <!DOCTYPE> is "EN" then that may be why it doesn't work.

lol

That doesn't matter, it's just the name of a class

w3schools.com is great.

This is a custom tag I made in css...titel is german for title.
