The CSS Type Selector

How do we specify an type selector?

You can use the name of a single HTML element as a selector. This is then considered as a Type Selector.

Type Selector is perhaps the most simplest of all selectors:

div {color:red; font-size:12px; line-height:15px;}

With this CSS rule in effect, any HTML code containing an div element on the web page is automatically rendered in 12-pixel font size, colored red and have a 15 pixel line height.

Example of a Type selector:

<html>
  <head>
    <style type="text/css">
 /* By the way: CSS comments can be written in this way */
      h1 {background-color: lightgrey;}
      /* This CSS rule will give all h1 elements
           a lightgrey background color */
      div {color: blue; font-size: 20px;
              border: 1px solid blue;}
      /* This CSS rule will give all div elements  a blue color,
          a 20 pixel font size and
          a blue solid border that is 1 pixel thick */
      p {color: green; font-size: 14px;  margin-left: 20px;}
     /* This CSS rule will give all p elements  a green color,
         a 14 pixel font size and a 20 pixel left margin*/
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>This is the header (h1) text</h1>
    <p>This is a paragraph text. </p>
    <div>
      Text inside the div tag follow all preset defaults.
      <p>This is a paragraph text inside a div element</p>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>
