Hey, I just taught myself CSS...

I don't think I understand the "#" thing.



Okay, say that is my code. When I go into my code and create a div with the ID of "nameofDiv", it will take on all of the properties as in the CSS code. Right?

right

Thanks, that helps a lot

# defines it as ID.
. defines it as a class.

so

.div{
css}

would be displayed with:
<div CLASS="div"></div>

#div{
css}

would be displayed with
<div ID="div"></div>

ahhh...even more helpful

The ID can only be used once on a page, its unique, and used for headers, footers in a typical layout style sheet.

Where as class is more versatile, can be used numerous times.
