CSS: Classes

The main solution for styling a particular part of the page is to use classes. They allow us to set a style we need only for the elements that have the required class satisfied, rather than all of them.

To specify a style for a class in CSS, we use the selector `.name-class'. Note the dot, this is how the browser understands that this style is specified for the class.

<p class="paragraph">
  The text of our paragraph.
  It's the paragraph class in CSS that
  will set properties for this block of text.
</p>

.paragraph {
  color: #333333;
  /*
    The color property sets the color of the text.
    In this case, it is gray with a value of #333333
  */
}

Since there can be many classes with the same name on the page, this rule will work for all elements where the class attribute is paragraph

Instructions

In the editor, add a paragraph with the class set to news and specify a text color of #553333 for it. Add styles with the <style> tag.
