PHP: CSS-styling a table printed out by PHP

So basically i have two php files, one with all the functions etc. and one with mixed php and html code.

<table>
   <?php echo read(); ?>            //This prints a full table with <tbody> etc.
</table>

My question: How do I access this PHP printed html code from my CSS style sheet? It s a seperate file and i have linked it correctly etc. (since it styles all the html code on the same file)

I have tried just putting

tbody { width:100px; padding: 20px;}

and all those normal ones, but for som reason it doesn't apply to the code the PHP prints out.

Suggestions? (new to PHP, be nice)

So if anyone stumbles on this thread with the same problem, I managed to solve it by putting all the CSS info in the <table> tag like this:

<table
        style="
            width:480px;
            margin-left:10px;
            font-family: calibri;
            background-color:white;
            color:black;
            padding:5px;
            border:1px solid black;
        "
        >

Add a class to the <table> tag like <table class="my-table"> and then try to add in your css file

.my-table{ width:100px; }

You should apply the css styles to the table tag.
