    Jonathne... can you also help me with this please

    #navigation { width: 12em; color: #333; }
    div#navigation { width: 12em; color: #333; }

    Is there a difference if you put the word div in front of the #

    Cheers

    • technically no. though id styles (indicated with #) should only appear on 1 object. never more than once7point34
    • so you wouldn't need to say its a div... the style sheet will just find the object with that id7point34
    • classes can be tag specific though. (indicated with a . )
      you can write different styles for p.nav, div.nav, span.nav etc.
