How to use blog layout in your CSS

Blogs hosted by AoPS follow a certain layout. You can take advantage of this by specifying the div you want your CSS to affect.

Specifying sections

You can specify a div with a specific ID (specified below) with:

   div #id_goes_here {
       CSS goes here
   }

IDs are used with div that only appears once in the code. On the other hand, divs that occur multiple times, like a blog entry, have a class. You can specify a class like this:

   div .class_goes_here {
       CSS goes here
   }

If you want to specify a specific HTML element, like p, the syntax is like this:

   div #id__goes_here p {
       CSS goes here
   }
   div .class_goes_here p {
       CSS goes here
   }

If you want to specify all HTML elements, use *. Here is an example:

   * {
       CSS goes here
   }

If you just want to specify for one HTML element, use:

   p {
       CSS;
   }

All items listed below are HTML divs unless otherwise specified.
