ID vs. Classes

* CSS styles can be applied to general page elements, CSS Classes, and specific items:
img { border: 0px; }
this applies to every image tag in the HTML document

.classy { color: red; }
this applies to a CSS class called classy.
<span class="classy" > Example of classy red text </span>

#about { background-color: #ccc; }
This rule applies to just the specific element that has an ID value of about:

<div id="about"> About stuff goes here </div>

HOME WORK (due at the beginning of class, next week)

KEEP WORKING ON "PROJECT A"

this week:

- make your webpages look better
- finish a rough draft (that means completed html pages w/ css)

- SEP. 25th: have a rough draft finished (that means completed html pages w/ css)

NOTE: failure to have a rough draft turned in (1 week before the due date), will result in a 10% drop in your project grade
