 Note that any tag may be assigned a CSS class.  This is the sole way of making use of the values produced by $\mt{style}$ declarations.  Ur/Web itself doesn't deal with the syntax or semantics of style sheets; they can be linked via URLs with \texttt{link} tags.  However, Ur/Web does make it easy to calculate upper bounds on usage of CSS classes through program analysis.  The function $\mt{Basis.classes}$ can be used to specify a list of CSS classes for a single tag.
 
+Also note that two different arguments are available for setting CSS classes: the first, associated with the \texttt{class} pseudo-attribute syntactic sugar, fixes the class of a tag for the duration of the tag's life; while the second, associated with the \texttt{dynClass} pseudo-attribute, allows the class to vary over the tag's life.  See Section \ref{signals} for an introduction to the $\mt{signal}$ type family.

 The \cd{fresh} function is allowed on both server and client, but there is no other way to create IDs, which includes lack of a way to force an ID to match a particular string.  The only semantic importance of IDs within Ur/Web is in uses of the HTML \cd{<label>} tag.  IDs play a much more central role in mainstream JavaScript programming, but Ur/Web uses a very different model to enable changes to particular nodes of a page tree, as the next manual subsection explains.  IDs may still be useful in interfacing with JavaScript code (for instance, through Ur/Web's FFI).

 Most approaches to ``AJAX''-style coding involve imperative manipulation of the DOM tree representing an HTML document's structure.  Ur/Web follows the \emph{functional-reactive} approach instead.  Programs may allocate mutable \emph{sources} of arbitrary types, and an HTML page is effectively a pure function over the latest values of the sources.  The page is not mutated directly, but rather it changes automatically as the sources are mutated.
