Do you need to quickly style the text within your web pages with CSS?

Normally the best way to use CSS is an external style sheet. It allows you to easily style the web pages throughout your whole site by editing one file however sometimes you just need to style one heading or paragraph (not the whole page or pages).

<p style="font-size:20px; font-weight:bold; color: #000;">Introduction</p>
Here’s how it’s displayed:
