Hello Pooja, CSS will not affect your ranking. Style sheets don't change any element's function, they just add style to the specified element. For instance ... -h1-This is a regular heading.-/h1- <h1>This is a regular heading</h1> -h1 style="color: darkcyan"-This is a styled heading-/h1- <h1 style="color: darkcyan">This is a styled heading</h1> I've replaced the "<" with "-" for this example. I hope it worked. No change in the function of the heading just the color. :) Now, embedding ... If you want to apply a style sheet to an entire site, it is best to use external sheets using this tag ... -link rel="stylesheet" href="./filename.css"- For just one page, it's usually best to embed the CSS. Thank you for using style! James ~* Check out the latest spec at http://www.w3.org/
