HTML element selector (CSS)

In CSS, an HTML element rule (element rule, tag rule, tag style) is a style rule which selects zero or more HTML elements based on the type of element.

Example

Class style rule:

p { color: red; }

Note that the "p" indicates a paragraph tag.

All paragraphs on the page will be affected by the above rule.

<p>...</p>
<p class="example">...</p>
