newbie: can this be put into a css file?

[Jeff]

Dear reader!

Below is the source of a asp.net 2.0 menu. I wonder if it's possible to put
styles like <StaticSelectedStyle ForeColor="blue" /> into a css file? and if
it's possible, how? A link explaining this would be greatly welcome!

Or maybe it's better to put it into .skin files?

Best Regards

Jeff


<asp:Menu ID="Menu1" runat="server" BackColor="#F7F6F3"
DynamicHorizontalOffset="2" Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="0.8em"
ForeColor="#7C6F57" StaticSubMenuIndent="10px">
<StaticMenuItemStyle HorizontalPadding="5px" VerticalPadding="2px" />
<DynamicHoverStyle BackColor="yellow" ForeColor="White" />
<DynamicMenuStyle BackColor="blue" />
<StaticSelectedStyle BackColor="red" />
<StaticSelectedStyle ForeColor="blue" />
<DynamicSelectedStyle BackColor="blue" />
<DynamicMenuItemStyle HorizontalPadding="5px" VerticalPadding="2px" />
<Items>
<asp:MenuItem Text="New Item" Value="New Item"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="New Item" Value="New Item"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="New Item" Value="New Item"></asp:MenuItem>
<asp:MenuItem Text="New Item" Value="New Item"></asp:MenuItem>
</Items>
<StaticHoverStyle BackColor="#7C6F57" ForeColor="White" />
</asp:Menu>

You cannot put Style information into a CSS file or <style> element in the
form that you show because it is illegal CSS syntax.

When you use these elements in a declarative control definition, it uses
these on the server to CREATE the legal css that they define. If you want to
see what this css looks like, just view source on any page that has a control
with such definitions.
