Topic: H1 Tags & Css

I am a procrastinator I know. A few months back I had asked about using H1 tags for SEO. Well I got frustrated and left it.
What I want to know is this. Can I go into the CSS style sheet and change the name of the title tag to H1. And then go into Dreamweaver and select H1 for the Title type or is there more to do than just that?

I hope you can understand what I am trying to say.

Thanks

Re: H1 Tags & Css

The <h1> (and all the other Hs) tag needs to be in your HTML, then you use your CSS to style it.  Example

<h1>Main Title</h1>

<h2>Second Most Important Title</h2>

<h3> and so forth

Then in your CSS:

h1 {color: red;}
h2 {color: green;}
h3 {background: yellow;}

Just for example - of course when actually writing your CSS, don't use color names, use hex code.
