The # signifies an id and must be unique for a given page/view.
example:
Code:
#header {
width: 760px;
padding: 5px 5px;
margin: 10px;
background: #FF0000;
}
usage:
Code:
<div id="header"> ... header content ... </div>
The star html is for IE6 poc and below. Other browsers will ignore this piece of code.
Code:
*html .example_class {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
