I have a question on the subject of HTML.
Can you assign an "id" attribute to elements like <h1>(so that you can later define their specifics in a stylesheet?

Oh no Look it is Mentorso,
The lost writer is now found.
But as you can see in HTML he is buried,
Far far underground.

This HTML I have not heard of,
I have only basic knowledge.
I want to learn it but I am slow,
To climb over that first big hedge.

Like on the Armor Games home page, the Armor Games link (white) is heading 1 and the New Games is also H1, but they look completely different.

Then probly their styles are assigned via nesting selectors that looks like that:

.menu h1 {text-color:white;}
.text h1 {text-color:black;}

That tells browser to display any <h1> found inside a container with "menu" class in black, and <h1>'s found inside a container with "text" class in black.

<div class="menu"><h1>White text</h1></div>
<div class="text"><h1>Black text</h1></div>

Ofcourse i mean "...found inside a container with "menu" class in WHITE", that was just a typo

Also, I'm having a problem where I have an h1 in a div which is fine, except the h1 text is one line in to the div as opposed to being at the top.

I've tried a lot of different things and I'm getting pretty annoyed, anyone know why this is happening?

One thing to make sure you do is separeate each attribute in your style sheet with a semicolon

I.e.

p.bluetext { color: Blue ;
font-family: Arial ;
}

something like that...

put that inside the <head> container

you need underscores for every space on the name of the file?

mentorso123, position the text as u like by setting an align attribute of div, or position/margin etc attributes of your h1 tag

alt_account, you need to specify a path to your css file

Also, does anyone know how to make the wrapper not have a space at the top and bottom? It sort of ruins the white space.
