What you are using are not classes, they are ID specifiers, and that's
not correct usage because an ID should be unique in a page. Classes are
what you really want, and here is how you use them:
------
a.nav { font-size: 8pt; font-weight: normal; color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none; }
applied to link
<a href="http://blah.com" class="nav">hello</a>
------
You use .classname (rather than #idname), and you use the
class="classname" attribute rather id="idname".
HTH,
