I am building a website using org and want ro add some styles to a
source code block. `#+ATTR_HTML` does not work and I can't assign a id
or class to it. Org does add some generic classes to it but that
causes ambiguity with other source blocks. Hence I cannot target it in
ny stylesheet or add inline styles to it Someone please help

#+begin_export html

May be your friend here.

#name
will give you the id and then you can do it in the stylesheet

Could you elaborate a little more... I am kinda new to org.

Even after adding the #+name, the source block doesn't seem to get a
html id

I dug this a bit.

With `(setq org-html-prefer-user-labels t)` (or `#+bind: org-html-
prefer-user-labels t` in org buffer) `#+name:` does produce `id`
attribute for source blocks.

This user option also has additional effects -- see its docstring
(`describe-variable` command), as it's not mentioned in the info
manual.

Thanks, although I used some `#+HTML: <div id="...">` tags to solve
the problem. Anyway I will keep your tip in mind if I later need that.
Thanks.
