Sometimes you might need to
override the styles of a more
specific selector. The only way
to do that is by adding
!important to the CSS rule,
to which you want to give more
importance:
Though #p1 is more specific
than .para, the background
color gray is applied because
of the !important rule. Try
removing !important to notice
the difference.
Note that, adding too many
!important rules in your code
will create confusion, because
you are overriding the normal
specificity.
Use this rule
only if it is absolutely
necessary.
