WHAT IS CSS?
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
CSS is used to format your webpage
CSS can be included within a HTML document or in an external document that is referenced within the HTML
Using an external document can save a lot of work because it can be used to style every page of a website.
CSS SYNTAX
The selector is the HTML element that you want to style.
Each declaration consists of a property and a value.
You can set a value to each property e.g. color:blue;
CSS SYNTAX CONTINUED
This example would be used to style a paragraph (p)
Must be surrounded by curly brackets.
Each declaration must end with a semi-colon
Note the spelling of color!!
p{color:red;text-align:center;}
WAYS TO INCLUDE CSS
Use an external style sheet.
This is ideal when you want the same styles to be applied to many pages.
To do this you use a <link> tag within the <head> on your html web pages. This will link to the style sheet:
<head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="style.css"></head>
This must be the same as the name given to the stylesheet
THE EXTERNAL CSS DOCUMENT
A text document saved with extension .css
The document should not contain any HTML tags.
The CSS document must be stored in the same folder as the HTML documents that use it.
STYLING BACKGROUNDS
A color can be specified by: HEX value e.g. “#E03FFFF” RGB value e.g. “rgb(255,0,0)” A color name e.g. “red”
body {background-color:#b0c4de;}
STYLING TEXT
The color property is used to set the color of the text.
The text-align property is used to set the horizontal alignment of text.
h1{
color:blue;text-align:center;
}
COPY THIS CODE ONTO A SEPARATE NOTEPAD PAGE. SAVE AS STYLE.CSS
body{
font-family:"Lucida Console", Courier New, Monospace;background-color: #BDDEFF;}h1,h2,h3{ text-decoration: underline;}h1{ font-size: 40px; text-align: center;}p{ color:red;
}
Change the colours and size.
