Chapter 2 : CSS Syntax The syntax for CSS is different than that of (X)HTML markup. Though it is not too confusing, once you take a look at it. It consists of only 3 parts. selector { property: value } The selector is the (X)HTML element that you want to style. The property is the actual property title, and the value is the style you apply to that property. Each selector can have multiple properties, and each property within that selector can have independent values. The property and value are separated with a colon and contained within curly brackets. Multiple properties are separated by a semi colon.

Or you can assign a class to a pseudo element as follows selector. p :pseudo-element {property: value} Using the above code would style all paragraphs within the declared selector with the pseudo element. The elements: first-line first-letter First Line The first-line pseudo element styles the first line of text in a block level element. p{font-size: small;} p: first-line {font-size: medium; color: #ff0000;} As you can see in the above example paragraphs are set to be a small font size, but the p:first-line is set to be a medium size and a red color.
