Mark, That is an excellent example! I'd use ID whenever the item is unique on a page - as it would have to be here. ID's have more specificity than classes and that may be needed at some point when/if there is a conflict. 2cents Russ > > Image I have a picture that appears once on lots of page

Image I have a picture that appears once on lots of pages so I give it: with the style: img#galah { border:0; } But on one page I want to give it more emphasis - I decide that a big pink border will be perfect - how do I do this? Well on the page in question I put a class or id on the body:
