# A Question About CSS

 * I wonder if someone can answer me a question, and possibly explain how to do 
   something.
 * At the moment I’m updating my creative writers blog; one section of the blog 
   gives information about current contests. The information is given in the following
   format:
    **Name Of Competition** Brief Description Closing Date Entry Fee Organizers
   Contact Info
 * What I’m aiming to do is make the Name Of Competition stand out a little and 
   I’ve done that by adding the following style to my custom style sheet:
    /*Competition
   Header Text*/ h3.competitions { font-size: 15px; font-family: arial,sans-serif;
   font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; color: 008000; } Within WordPress my opening
   line would look like this: <h3 class=”competitions”>Name Of Competition</h3>
 * My problem, if you can call it one, is this. Every sixth line I’m going to have
   to start writing <h3 class=”competitions”>Name Of Competition</h3> and to be 
   honest if you are publishing eight or ten competitions that’s a bit of a pain.
 * So what I’d like to know is is there a way I can automate/semi-automate this 
   process;
    for example could you put the name of the style h3.competitions into
   say where you have your paragraph and header tags then just select and click 
   on h3.competitions just as you would on paragraph.
 * Are there any plugins that will help me do this
 * As I said the above is just a ‘for example.’ I know very little about css and
   how to control it. Any advice on how I can short cut the writing out of the whole
   style would be appreciated

 * Put those inside a div:
 *     ```
       <div id="competition">
       	<h3>Name Of Competition</h3>
       	<!-- Text -->
       	<h3>Name Of Competition 2</h3>
       	<!-- Text -->
       	...
       </div>
       ```
   
 *     ```
       #competition h3 {
       	font-size: 15px;
       	font-family: arial,sans-serif;
       	font-weight: 400;
       	font-style: normal;
       	color: #008000;
       }
       ```
