HTML <strong> style Attribute

A style attribute on a <strong> tag assigns a unique style to the element.

Its value is CSS that defines the appearance of the strong element.

Example

#

A style attribute on a <strong> tag.

Homework is due on March 11.

<p>
  Homework is due on <strong style="color: teal;">March 11</strong>.
</p>

Using style

The style attribute specifies the style, i.e. look and feel, of the <strong> element.

A style contains any number of CSS property/value pairs, separated by semicolons (;).

The style attribute overrides any other style that was defined in a <style> tag or an external CSS file.

This inline styling affects the current <strong> element only.


Syntax

<strong style="CSS-styles">

Clicking the button calls JavaScript which toggles the text color to a different one.
