What is a Style? (continued)

Inline Styles

• Inline Styles are contained in a style attribute of an element tag. They have a similar format to document styles except there is no selector (of course) nor curly brackets:

<elementTag style="property: value;">

• <p style="color:green;">This will be a green paragraph</p>
• Use a span tag to apply a style over just part of a block element or a div tag to apply it over a block element or multiple block elements.
  • <p>Most of this paragraph has the default style, <span style="color:blue; font-weight:bold;">but this section will be bold & blue.</span> Back to normal again.</p>
    
    Displays as:
    

    Most of this paragraph has the default style, but this section will be bold & blue. Back to normal again.
