What is CSS
 Cascading Style Sheets are known as CSS.
 CSS handles the look and feel part of a web
page. Using CSS, we can control the color of
the text, the style of fonts, the spacing
between paragraphs, how columns are sized
and laid out, what background images or
colors are used and etc.,

Creating and Applying Styles
 There are three ways of inserting a style sheet:
 Inline (HTML Tags)
 Internal Style sheets
 External Style sheets
5

Inline styles
 An inline style may be used to apply a unique
style for a single element.
 To use inline styles, add the style attribute to
the relevant element. The style attribute can
contain any CSS property.
 Example
<h1 style="color:blue;margin-left:30px;">This is a heading</h1>
6

Internal Style Sheet
 An internal style sheet may be used if one
single page has a unique style.
 Internal styles are defined within the <style>
element, inside the <head> section of an
HTML page:
 This makes it easy to apply styles like classes
or id's in order to reuse the code.

example
<head>
<style>
body {
background-color: Silver;
}
h1 {
color: red;
margin-left: 40px;
}
</style>
</head>

External style sheets
 With an external style sheet, you can change
the look of an entire website by changing just
one file.
 Each page must include a reference to the
external style sheet file inside the <link>
element. The <link> element goes inside the
<head> section.
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css"

Style Builder

apply styles to our web documents.
 It’s a dialog box with a number of screens that
allow us to modify the appearance of text and
objects in web documents.
