Introduction

CSS uses selectors to find elements on the page. You can target elements by their tag name, class, or id. This allows developers to style specific sections without affecting the entire site.

Example

1/* this shows different selectors */
2p {
3  color: red;
4}
5
6#special {
7  color: blue;
8}
9
10.highlight {
11  color: yellow;
12}

Key Points

Element selectors target specific HTML tags.
ID selectors target one unique element.
Class selectors target a group of elements.
The asterisk targets every element on the page.
