I want to apply styles to labels such as color, boldness, alignment and whatnot.  This doesn't seem to work.  Consider the following code:

public class StyleTest implements EntryPoint

{

private final AbsolutePanel absolutePanel = new AbsolutePanel();

private final Label lblNormalLabel = new Label("Normal Label");

private final Label lblGreenLabel = new Label("Green Label");

public void onModuleLoad()

{

RootPanel rootPanel = RootPanel.get();

rootPanel.add(absolutePanel, 10, 10);

absolutePanel.setSize("430px", "280px");

absolutePanel.add(lblNormalLabel, 30, 24);

lblGreenLabel.setStyleName("gwt-Label.Green");

absolutePanel.add(lblGreenLabel, 30, 82);

lblGreenLabel.setSize("141px", "36px");

}

}

and the CSS entry:

.gwt-Label.Green {

color: Green;

font-size: larger;

font-weight: bolder;

vertical-align: middle;

}

I would expect lblGreenLabel to be green, centered, larger and bolded.  However it is identical to lblNormalLabel in appearance.  What am I doing wrong or how do I get lblGreenLabel to accept the styles I want?
