The Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) Editor window provides a graphical interface for modifying the styles in a .css file. You can create classes and unique IDs for elements, as well as set style properties for individual HTML tags.

Note   The CSS Editor allows you to modify HTML tags supported by Microsoft® Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later. HTML tags not supported by Internet Explorer will be converted to UNKNOWN when you save the .css file. For more information, see HTML References.

The CSS Editor window contains two main sections: the Selector tree and the property options. In the Selector tree, you can choose the HTML tag, class, or unique ID to modify. You can also add new HTML tags, classes, or unique IDs.

For more information on cascading style sheets, see , , , and . For additional information, search for Cascading Style Sheets in Internet Explorer 4.0 and A User's Guide to Style Sheets.
