CSS Syntax


A CSS rule consists of a selector and a declaration block.

CSS Syntax



The selector points to the HTML element you want to style.
The declaration block contains one or more declarations separated by
semicolons.
Each declaration includes a CSS property name and a value, separated by a colon.
Multiple CSS declarations are separated with semicolons, and declaration
blocks are surrounded by curly braces.

Example
In this example all <p> elements will be center-aligned, with a red
text color:

p
{
  color: red;
  text-align: center;
}
