pseudo-class), where you may wish to substantially change the default appearance; you can change the width and positioning of the bar, for example. (By which we probably mean the whole element's dimensions and position, not just the painted part of the element, as featured in the screen shot below.)
Examples
This example styles the progress meter portion of the progress bar with ID redbar
