    You put this in your <head>:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/your/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />

    ... or you simply include a STYLEsheet right into your HEAD section (in html, not on the neck ;-)) :

    <head>
    meta tags, etc...
    ...
    <style type="text/css">
    #header {background: navy; color: silver; padding:20px}
    .caption {font-size: 20pt; font-weight: bold}
    </style>
    </head>

    and then in the HTML code:

    <body>
    ...your content...
    <div id="header">My first CSS-tuned page!</div>
    <h1 class="caption">This is my first CSS-tuned caption!</h1>
    ...
    </body>

    feel free to PM me if you have more questions...
