Hi,
I may be getting out of my depth here but I want to apply the H1 tag to all
the text that appears with in a headline div (#headline) on a large number of
pages.
I've used #headline to style the headline container (margins, border etc) and
I want the text inside to be styled using H1 (because, I understand, it's good
for SEO) rather than simply setting the styles within #headline.
Is there a way in CSS (perhaps within #headline) to automatically apply H1 to
all text within the div#headline or am I looking at applying the H1 tag on each
of the pages?
Thanks,
Mick

Huh? You want to apply a tag?

CSS cannot do such things.

I think you will have to do this manually.

<h1> is an HTML tag. You'll have to apply the H1 tag manually to
whatever text you want to be a heading.

Then in your stylesheet you can style all H1s in the headline container
with something like #headline h1 {color: #000;} to make the text appear
as you want it.

<h1> is not a style, it's a headline tag. Its intended purpose is to
mark the most important brief information on the page - the headline.
Less important information gets <h2>, <h3>, ... tags.

If you've got something like this:

<div id="headline">This is my entire headline text</div>

(which is bad practice by the way - what you're proposing to do is the
proper way). This will be a two-stage process. First, back up your
site.

First step:
Find in: [Entire current local site]
Search for: [Specific Tag] [div]
[With Attribute] [id] [=] [headline]

Action: [Add before end tag] [</h1>]

Second Step
Find in: [Entire current local site]
Search for: [Specific Tag] [div]
[With Attribute] [id] [=] [headline]

Action: [Add after start tag] [<h1>]

Murray - yup, I wanted to see if I could apply a tag [b]automatically[/b]
rather than applying it manually over 40-odd pages.
I guess I'm getting lazy and trying to get a computer to do the donkey work
for me lol.

Joe, thanks, search & replace looks like the solution I'd not thought of! (I
know it's a tag not a style).

At the moment I have <div id="headline"><p>This is a headline</p></div>
and I need <div id="headline"><h1>This is a headline</h1></div>

So I guess I need to add another step to your solution to remove the <p> and
</p> tags.

I'll get on it,
Thanks,
Mick
