I am new to CSS !
I would like to overwrite a span style using external CSS. Any suggestions?
!important did not work for me. Sample code below.
<div class="abc" id= "xy" style="font-size: 30px;">
<span style="color: #009530;">bcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz bananaaa</span> </div>
basically I would like to overwrite the #009530 for the text using a external css.
I tried like below external css. It did not work for me.
#xy {
color: blue !important;
}
TIA
