<P>
This sentence should be green, because the declaration marked important should override any other normal declaration for the same element, even if it occurs later in the stylesheet.
</P>
<P ID="id1">
This sentence should also be green, even though it has an ID of <TT>id1</TT>, which would ordinarily make it purple.  This is because declarations marked important have more weight than normal declarations given in a STYLE attribute.
</P>
<P style="color: red;">
This sentence should also be green, even though it has a STYLE attribute declaring it to be red.  This is because declarations marked important have more weight than normal declarations given in a STYLE attribute.
