I'm not sure specifically which part you're talking about, but all of the styling information like the background images, font colors, etc are in the CSS sheet. I don't really agree with the way he's doing it, he's using IDs instead of classes, but everything that applies to those boxes is defined in the stylesheet.http://www.plentyoffish.com/800p.csse.g. for this:<div id="box"> <!--- box border --><div id="lb"><div id="rb">Since those are IDs, the rules that apply to them in CSS will be labelled "#box", "#lb", "#rb", etc.

You say that he uses I'd's not classes what do you mean by that.

<div id="foo" class="bar">

The id of that is foo, the class is bar. In CSS, it would be referenced by either #foo or .barIDs can only be given to one element, but many elements can have one class.

When you use "id"s, you must have a unique one for every one you use. Classes can be reused. If there is common features, use classes and reduce the size of the css. That will allow for quicker development.
