h1 heading for my personal style sheet

This page is styled with CSS. The styles associated with this document are my starter kit for the styling of text in each site I develop.

This is an h2 heading

Note that margins and padding are removed from all elements using the * declaration at the top of the stylesheet. This ensures that differences between browser default style sheets are removed and improve the chances of a consistant look on all browsers.

This shows what a second paragraph looks like in the document flow. The space between the paragraphs is just enough space for the eye to clearly see the break but no more.

This is an h3 heading describing this list.

Here is an intro paragraph for the ordered list

1. Ordered list - Item 1
2. An ordered list displays numbers
3. Item 3
4. Item 4

Here is an intro paragraph for the unordered list

• An unordered list where each item is a link - Item 1
• An unordered list displays bullets by default
• Item 3
• Item 4

Here's the definition list's paragraph

CSS

Can sometimes stand for Cascasding Style Sheets

Can seldom stand for Colorful Skiing Socks

Now let's do a blockquote, which is a nice interesting feature to drop into long pieces of text from time to time, viz:

Ah, ye Gods, this Cascading Style Sheet coding is mighty tiring work for a mere mortal!

A few moments ago, I realized I had been sitting here all day and said to myself "Ah, ye Gods, this Cascading Style Sheet coding is mighty tiring work for a mere mortal!", which is a clear indication that self-pity is setting in and perhaps dinner with a nice glass of wine (which contains C_nH_2n+1OH) would make me feel 10¹⁰ times better.

Note: IDWIMIE! IE7 makes a complete mess of displaying sub and sup.
