3. color:#00f;
4. background-color:#ddd;
5. }
6. #el03 {background:url(/i/icon-info.gif) no-repeat 100% 50%} /* Background image */
7. #el04 {border-width:6px} /* Border width */
8. #el05 {border:2px dotted #00f} /* Border width, style and colour */
9. #el06 {border:none} /* No border */
10. #el07 {font-family:"Courier New",Courier} /* Different font */
11. #el08 {font-size:2em} /* Bigger text */
12. #el09 {font-size:0.5em} /* Smaller text */
13. #el10 {font-weight:bold} /* Bold text */
14. #el11 {padding:1em} /* Increase padding */
