Details

This selector is the id of the HTML <body> tag. The <body> tag contains every bit of page content on a page, and in normal application an HTML document has only one <body>. Therefore, while you can use #html-body to style the entire page with CSS, it has practically the same effects as styling the body type selector.

Examples

Body is good for changing the global background color/image or setting the font for the document. For instance, this particular page is currently using the Comic Sans MS font (or Times New Roman if you don't have that) with the following code:

#html-body{
    font-family: 'Comic Sans MS','Times New Roman';
    font-size: 13px;
}
