The style global attribute contains CSS styling declarations to be applied to the element. Note that it is recommended for styles to be defined in a separate file or files. This attribute and the {{HTMLElement("style")}} element have mainly the purpose of allowing for quick styling, for example for testing purposes.

html
<div style="background: #ffe7e8; border: 2px solid #e66465">
  <p style="margin: 15px; line-height: 1.5; text-align: center">
    Well, I am the slime from your video

    Oozin' along on your livin' room floor.
  </p>
</div>

[!NOTE] This attribute must not be used to convey semantic information. Even if all styling is removed, a page should remain semantically correct. Typically it shouldn't be used to hide irrelevant information; this should be done using the hidden attribute.
