Do any of you create classes with one (or two) attributes?

Is this an efficient practice?

.floatLeft {float: left;}
.floatRight {float: right;}
.noListStyle {list-style-type: none;}
.center {margin: 0 auto;}
.clear {clear: both;}
.blue {color: blue;}

I’ve seen some css that does this, but how far do you go?

I usually have a float left, float right, and clear.

But having something like "blue", no.

I generally don’t like applying multiple classes to an element. If I can avoid it, I will.

Going extreme with it is what is becoming known as object oriented CSS.

Code:

It’s contrary to how I was learned up with CSS, but I’m actually building a site right now where this approach is very useful.
