CSS Syntax
-
The basic syntax of a style in CSS is made up of 3 sections:
- The selector is where you put the HTML tag name (or ID or class) you want to define rules for. For example the header h1.
- The property is the property you want to change for that particular selector. For example let’s change the color of our h1.
- The value is the value for the property you want to change. For example let’s set all h1’s color to be red.
- For each selector you can have multiple property, value combinations.
- The rule or whole CSS syntax would look like this if we wanted all h1’s
on the site to be red.
- H1 {color: red;}
