This styling is for the items in the default MAINMENU. Note: it isn't advisable to keep main menu as horizontal or vertical list. Make it a flat list and style it as a unordered list.
Title of the component being used to display the content. There are no h tags with this so it will style differently than the next two. It is sometimes wrapped by a table, so if you are having difficulties styling it, try td.componentheading.
Example
h1.componentheading
Title of category when showing catagory titles in content.
Example
h2.componentheading
Title of component when using directly in content (Example: Using URL menu item directly to component). Still researching every area this is used in.
Example
.contentitem h1
Title on content items.
Example
.contentheading
Title of the content, article, etc. being displayed. There is a rumored h2.contentheading somewhere, but I couldn't find it.
Example
.contentpane
Table that holds all non-article information (components, category lists, contact forms, etc). FAQ in default install is wrapped in this.
This is for styling the section table headers on a SECTION's page. Example: table header of "Date", "Item Title", "Author" and "Hits"?
Date
.sectiontableentry1
Example
.sectiontableentry2

JOOMLA! MODULES FORMATTING
A quick note about Joomla! modules. There are 4 settings for Joomla! modules from within the template:
-1 strips out all wrapper code including the title leaving only your module content.
-2 surrounds the module content with a div and places an h3 tag around the title (standards compliant!)
-3 is the same as -2 except that it wraps it with three additional div tags so that you can style custom module backgrounds and borders.
-4 Makes the entire module a table and places the title within a th tag.
table.moduletable
[-4 style] Formatting the module wrapper. If you are having any issues styling then write it as table.moduletable.
