Setting Styles using the ''id'' Attribute of an HTMl Element
<pre>
<h1 id="mainHeading">This is the main heading</h1>
</pre>
having defined the ''id'' we can now create a CSS rule specifically for this element ''id'' by prefixing the id with a ''#'' character:
<pre>
#mainHeading {color: blue; font-style: normal}
<pre>
 
Now any tag that has the matching id will inherit the style for that id.

When defining an HTML tag it is possible to asdsign that tag an id. For example we might create a heading element with the ''mainHeading'':
 
<pre>
<h1 id="mainHeading">This is the main heading</h1>
</pre>
