First, you have to define classes or IDs in your html content (for example, the area for your main content gets an id="content").
In your CSS, you can use #content (if it is an ID) or .content (if you specified class="content") to style it. Beware that IDs can be used only once in a HTML document whereas classes can be used multiple times.

Ruleset : Selectors can be attached to other selectors to be identified by ruleset. It has two parts: Selector, e.g. R and declaration {text-indent: 11pt}
CSS selectors can target HTML elements using various criteria, including element types (e.g., div, p), classes (e.g., .classname), IDs (e.g., #idname), attribute values (e.g., [type="text"]), and pseudo-classes (e.g., :hover). Additionally, combinators like descendant ( ), child (>), and sibling (+, ~) selectors can establish relationships between elements. More advanced selectors also include pseudo-elements (e.g., ::before, ::after) and group selectors (e.g., h1, h2, h3). These selectors allow for precise targeting and styling of elements within a webpage.
if you neglected to save your css file in a .css format, then it may not work.
In short, no. Quirks mode HTML (no doctype) can be written in any form of casing you want. HTML markup should be written in lowercase as a rule of thumb. XML requires you to use lowercase or errors will be generated.
The only problem with CSS is browser incompatibility. Some of the css attributes do not work on old browsers.
Limitations are: Ascending by selectors is not possible Limitations of vertical control No expressions No column declaration Pseudo-class not controlled by dynamic behavior Rules, styles, targeting specific text not possible.
There is no such physical thing as "Advanced" CSS, nor advanced css layouts. CSS can get difficult, and certain areas can be deemed for the "Advanced" coders, but all-in-all, there is no such thing as an Advanced CSS Layout.
You want to use a tag selector to define the look and feel of all tags of a certain type. These selectors are comprised of the tag itself, in front of the CSS declarations. p {font-weight:bold;} img {width: 245px;} Those will define the properties on all the paragraphs and images in the page.
CSS classes do work in FireFox. What is the main problem? (specifically)Have you checked that the syntax is correct?There is a lot to learn about things with CSS and browsers, you may need a hack or fix, if all else fails.
When you are writing CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) code, you are writing a set of rules that a page's HTML code must follow when rendering the page. Every block of CSS rules has three important parts: The selector, properties, and values. The selector is what tells the page WHAT elements the following rules apply to, such as all divs with a name of "colorMeRed". Properties are what the page must change on the element, such as it's color. Finally, the value is what that property actually must be set to, such as "red".
You just need to have an idea about it's properties. CSS provides a full range of properties, a user is able to work upon.
