p.ul {
font: 8pt Verdana; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding: 0px; outline-style: solid; outline-width: medium;
}


Is the .ul listed above called a *selector*? A selector of the Paragraph tag?

Also, when I tried to update this style sheet rule with outline-style and outline-width, I did not see any changes at all in IE6 or FireFox.

Anyway to make it work?

The p is the selector and the ul seems to be the name or class given to that selector. So you can place those properties into the p element by:

It isn't wise to name your class similarly to an HTML element. You should probably give ul a different name.

...

ul is normally used for unordered lists, not as a class attribute for paragraphs.

You should consider following dumbcoders comments.

Also think about making your css smaller by grouping things like margin like this:

margin: 0 0 10px 0;

ul - unordered list
ol - ordered list

display: inline; will make it in-a-line if you want your list horizontal.

quick tips, good suggestion by Julian on the margins.
