Basic css question

Question

Hi all this is a basic question but I need to ask it
Ther h1, h2, h3 classes that are set normally at the
beginning of each style sheet does that meanm that the same values
are set throughout the whole page? If I have another div how can I
set another value for the h2 and how would I do it? Is it the same
for classes and divs? Sorry just trying to to understand it,
thanks

Answer 1

And, since a given ID can only be used once per page, it
would only apply to
the first such container it found. A class can be used many
times on a
page, and so it would apply to every such container.
