Possible values
|
value |
String that specifies the value of the class attribute. |
|
sRules |
String that specifies one or more cascading style sheet property/value pairs. |
Remarks
The class property value must immediately follow a period (.). More than one class name can be specified in one style rule; to match a subset of class values, each value must be preceded by a period.
Example
For example, the following style rule matches any H2 element whose class property has been assigned a space-separated list of values that include the pastoral and marine class names. This rule matches when class="pastoral aqua marine" but does not match when class="pastoral blue":
<style>
h2.pastoral.marine {color: lightseagreen;}
</style>
