To answer your question, you would do this:
```
.mydiv p {
someproperty: somevalue;
}
```
If you need further help, please post a WordPress.com URL as timethief requested. :)

Also what about there is multiple div?
For example, I want to change the <p> font color within a parent div class=oneparent, and under the child div class=twochild

Actually this is my real problem at the moment..

Thanks!

Allow us to be crystal clear. We require a link to the free hosted WordPress.com blog in question. The fact it is private is irrelevant. We need the link in order to confirm that it is actually a free hosted WordPress.com blog you are referring to. Also as all CSS editing is theme specific we need to know exactly which theme you are CSS editing.

Can you post an example html block instead? Or perhaps make an example at http://adamchenitprofessional.wordpress.com/ so we can see it in a URL?

This forum is for WordPress.com blogs, so you can make an example at http://adamchenitprofessional.wordpress.com/ or head over to http://wordpress.org/support/ for help instead.

Indeed and that’s why we asked for the URL. WordPress.com and WordPress.org run on different software and the themes by the same name are not the same versions. The themes are coded to run on either one or the other.

No you cannot. There is no FTP access and we cannot upload plugins. Please read http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Guys, Thanks for your assistance, but I found the errors after I tried to place the same plugin in one of my own site.

But Thanks
The problem may lay with my own CSS put into.
