However, you should only use ID once on a page, and you can use CLASS repeatedly. Also you seem confused (like we all were once) between the way to mark up ID & CLASS and the way the CSS is written. So you could have:- <div id="rightcol"> <p class="ptext">blah blue text blah</p> <p>text in the default colour</p> <p class="ptext">more blue text</p> </div> and your CSS might look (in part) like:- div#rightcol {float: right; margin: 0; padding: 0;} p.ptext {color: #00F; back-ground-color: #ABCDEF;} Whether you'd need to float you column right is NOT the issue here, I leave that to you !
