The STYLE element defines an embedded style sheet that declare the styles for use within the current page.

Microsoft^® Internet Explorer^® 4.0 and later permit multiple style blocks. Netscape Navigator^® 4.0 and later supports two types of style sheets: Cascading Style Sheets ( CSS ), the default, and JavaScript style sheets. To specify that the style sheet is JavaScript, the value of the type attribute is "text/javascript".

The STYLE element should appear in the HEAD section of an HTML document.

Please see Style Sheet Basics and Using Style Sheets for more information on using the STYLE element. The CSS Reference Table provides a complete list of the standard W3C CSS-2 style attributes.
