CSS-Selector single rule

Question

Does anybody know whether the semicolon is required in a CSS -selector if there is only one command? I couldn't find in the w3c standrd.

body{color:red}

Or

body{color:red;}

It is optional for the last rule. :) – Praveen Kumar Purushothaman Mar 18 '16 at 15:49 — Praveen Kumar Purushothaman, Mar 18 '16 at 15:49

No, it is not required when you only have one style defined but if you have multiple ones defined it is required on all but the last one.

**1.** With such high rep, you should know that this should be a comment. **2.** There's already a dupe for this kind of mundane questions. Kindly close it as dupe, instead of answering. – Praveen Kumar Purushothaman Mar 18 '16 at 15:52

This is pretty obviously an answer, I don't see why it should be a comment. – BoltClock Mar 18 '16 at 15:55
@BoltClock I gave my reasons. If both reasons are not enough, then I accept what you say. `:)` – Praveen Kumar Purushothaman Mar 18 '16 at 15:55
