Your question is somewhat ambiguous, but if you need to style
an element repeatedly on a page you should use a class, not
an id.
CSS
.prettything {styles;}
Markup
<span class=prettything">Pretty stuff</span>
With a class defined using just the dot nomenclature you
could use it on any element you need to.
<div class="prettything">Pretty div</div>
<p class="prettything">Pretty paragraph</p>
and so on.
What about :
#container{ styles }
#container p{more styles}
#container p.alert {color : #f00;}
Then if (for example) you have 10 paragraphs, you can style the select
few by classing them as "alert" viz: <p class="alert">
