CSS

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. Styles define how to display HTML elements. Styles

were added to HTML 4.0 to solve a problem. External Style Sheets can save a lot of work.

External Style Sheets are stored in CSS files. CSS defines HOW HTML elements are to be

displayed.

A CSS rule has two main parts: a selector, and one or more declarations:

                                                         

The selector is normally the HTML element you want to style.

Each declaration consists of a property and a value.

Types of Style Sheets

A style sheet is a set of stylistic CSS rules that tell a browser how the different parts of a

XHTML document are presented. A style sheet is simply a text file with the file name

extension css.

1. Linked / External

2. Embedded / Internal

3. Inline

Linked / External

Once your <div> tags are in place, add either a class or ID for styling each <div>separately. For

parts of the page that appear only once and form the basic building blocks of the page, web

designers usually use an ID.ID selectors are identified using a hash character (#); class selectors

are identified with a period(.).

<link href=“styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Embedded / Internal

<head>

<style type=“text/css”></style>

/* styles go here */

</head>
