I’m editing the custom css on wordpress.com and I’m trying to override the line-height

  • 0

I’m editing the custom css on wordpress.com and I’m trying to override the line-height that is in ie.css which I don’t believe I have any power over (I think wordpress injects)

here is the css code I wrote to override a style in ie.css

.ie7 .main-navigation li a {
    line-height: auto !important;
}

For some odd reason the css won’t update, even if I make it look like this:

a {
    line-height: auto !important;
}

I’ve inspected the elements to see if the style is being applied, it’s not. I’ve cleared my cache multiple times also.. still nothing.

Does wordpress.com custom css not allow line-height editing? What could be some possibilities on why a style wouldn’t render on wordpress.com?

The link to the blog is: http://letstalktermites.wordpress.com/

EDIT: I’m only having these troubles in ie7 and ie8

    there is no ‘auto’ value for line-height. try ‘normal’…
