HTML <style> tag

Example

Use of the style element in an HTML document:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
h1 {color:red}
p {color:blue}
</style>
</head>

<body>
<h1>Header 1</h1>
<p>A paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>

The <style> tag is used to define style information for an HTML document.

In the style element you specify how HTML elements should render in a browser.

The required type attribute defines the content of the style element. The only possible value is "text/css".

The style element always goes inside the head section.

The <style> tag is supported in all major browsers.
