In CSS, it is possible to have multiple selectors and declarations applying to elements of CSS styling, but what happens if there are conflicting styling selections? Simple: There\u2019s a priority in what conflicting styling is applied. The priority list goes as follows from highest priority to lowest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5) Declaration marked \u201c!important\u201d \u2013 These go after a declaration \/ style in the declaration block, such as \u201ccolor: green !important;\u201d for example. This is almost never used, as that usually means you should simplify the IDs and Classes of targeted tags and elements with declarations \/ styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4) Inline style \u2013 Style attributes inside HTML directly. Again, almost never used since there are better and more readable alternatives to styling HTML.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3) ID (#) selector<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2) Class ( . ) or pseudo-class ( : ) selector<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1) Element selector (p, div, li, etc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
0) Universal selector<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For ID, Class\/Pseudo-Class, and Element selectors, if there are multiple conflicting styles in those selectors, then the last selector in the CSS code is applied.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
