CSS
CSS is a layout technique: It only affects the appearance of web pages. CSS must be ‘glued’ to HTML structure; it cannot stand alone. CSS affects layout in two ways: It can change the default appearance of HTML tags (such as links, paragraphs, etc.) or it can create new style classes that can be applied to blocks of the HTML document
- Simple mechanism for adding style to Web
- Widely supported by web browsers
- Better than HTML
- You can do more and have more control
CSS allows you to:
- Stylize existing HTML tags (like <h1>)
- Define new classes, divisions, and id’s
CSS Notes:
- CSS can go in the HTML head, between <head> and </head>
- In line, in the HTML code, like this: <font style="color:red"> … </font>
- CSS can be linked to an external file, like this <LINK REL=stylesheet HREF=“yourName.css" TYPE="text/css">
