class selectors
The class and id attributes of HTML elements can be used in conjunction with styles.
Class names are referenced in CSS as .classname, and may or may not have an element name preceding the period (.classname or element.classname.
Likewise, id names are referenced in CSS as #idref, and may or may not have an element name preceding the period (#idref or element#idref.
