CSS style sheets are written like this.
selector
{
}
property
:
value
;
Lets break that down. The first part is the selector, it selects what element the style rule (the part in the {}) gets applied to. Here are a few examples
body
{
}
property
:
value
;
.my_class
{
}
property
:
value
;
#my_id
{
}
property
:
value
;
The first example would set the rule to apply to the body element.
The second would apply to any element with attribute class="my_class", you can set "my_class" to any value you like.
The third will apply to the element with attribute id="my_id" on it. This is much like the class but there can only be one element with a particular id in any one document.
