Understanding specificity and the cascade in CSS, including how to resolve conflicts between styles Mocktest

Conflicting styles in CSS can be resolved by using inline styles, increasing the specificity of selectors, and reordering the styles in the style sheet.

The order of styles in the CSS cascade determines which styles take precedence in case of conflicts, with later styles overriding earlier ones if they have equal or higher specificity.

An ID selector has higher specificity than a class selector in CSS.

The specificity value (0,1,0,0) represents an ID selector in CSS, as it has a specificity of (0,1,0,0), with the second part representing the specificity of ID selectors.

The specificity of a CSS rule can be increased by using the !important declaration, which gives the style the highest priority.

If conflicting styles have the same specificity and order in the style sheet, the browser applies the style declared last, as styles cascade from the top of the style sheet to the bottom.

The correct way to override a CSS style declared in an external style sheet is by using inline styles, which have the highest specificity.

Element selectors have the lowest specificity in CSS, as they target HTML elements based on their tag names.

The !important declaration in CSS is used to give a style the highest priority, ensuring that it overrides other styles.
