Styleclass attribute not working

Hi all,

 

I am trying to use the styleClass attribute to apply a specific style but it doesn't work.

When I apply the same style inline in the tag it works.

 

Thanks for explaining me what can be wrong in my code:

 

<apex:page >

    <style type="text/css"> 
      .myClass {
          color:white;
          background-color:#00CC00;
       }
    </style>
    

<apex:outputText styleClass="myClass"> This should be white text with green background 
</apex:outputText>

</apex:page>

Hi,

 

You have to modify your code as below. give text in value attribute of <apex:outputText>.

 

Visualforce Page:

<apex:page >
    <style type="text/css"> 
      .myClass {
          color:white;
          background-color:#00CC00;
       }
    </style>
<apex:outputText styleClass="myClass" value="This should be white text with green background">
</apex:outputText>
</apex:page>
