How about just defining the H6 with those characteristics...

H6 {color:white; background:blue;}

It will keep the remaining characteristics of a H6 tag, but will "inherit"
these additional characteristics.  Hope this helps.

I have some HTML that I want to have the same style as H1, H2 etc. except,
say, a different color, or maybe, a little bit different margin, for
example.  I don't want to dink with the standard H1, H2, etc. parameters, so
I thought this would be a good time to inherit (? is that the correct term)
the properties of the headers into some new classes for my use.  Can someone
point me to a simple example for doing this?  For example...say I wanted to
have a class name MyH6, which had the same style as H6, except the text is
white, and the background is blue.  Thanks.
