Difference between class and id in css

 

[george.weballey13]

with the same class you can name more than one element (.myclass).
With id you must name only one element (#myid)

 

[PariJain]

The class attribute can be used with multiple HTML elements/tags and all will take the effect. Where as the id is meant for a single element/tag and is considered unique.

The id Selector

The id selector is used to specify a style for a single, unique element.

The id selector uses the id attribute of the HTML element, and is defined with a "#".





The class Selector

The class selector is used to specify a style for a group of elements. Unlike the id selector, the class selector is most often used on several elements.
This allows you to set a particular style for many HTML elements with the same class.
The class selector uses the HTML class attribute, and is defined with a "."

Sorry I don't know about this topic.

 

[Rachelkruse]

Classes used multiple times in the same HTMl document but If you use ID more than one time it will cuase validation error. while using class we use (".") and in other hand Id preceded by ("#")

Sample

#top {
background-color: #FFFF;
padding: 36px
}

.intro {
color: Blue;
font-weight: bold;
}

[George Strong]

But tell me what is id or class.

 

[nafasat]

class is use number of times in html webpage or id is use only one time.

 

[charvinair]

ID's are unique:
Each element can have only one ID
Each page can have only one element with that ID

Classes are NOT unique:
You can use the same class on multiple elements.
You can use multiple classes on the same element.
