What is CSS? CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets Styles define how to display (X)HTML elements Styles are normally stored in Style Sheets Multiple style definitions will cascade into one
5
A Brief History of CSS Style sheets have existed since the beginnings of SGML in the 1970s As HTML grew, it came to encompass a wider variety of stylistic capabilities Nine different style sheet languages were proposed to the W3C Two were chosen as the foundation for CSS: CHSS and Stream-based Style Sheet Proposal CSS level 1 – 1996; CSS level 2 – 1997 Difficulties with adoption
6
Why to use Styles? Documents written with CSS are –more flexible –short –clear Basic formating tool Easy multiple document managment Save time by using selector classes New opportunities in formating WebpageStructure(X)HTML Style- formatting CSS
7
Basic Syntax Made up of three parts: selector {property: value} The selector is normally the HTML element/tag you wish to define The property is the attribute you wish to change Every property has the value
8
Syntax If the value is multiple words, put quotes around the value p {font-family: "sans serif"} To make the style definitions more readable, you can describe one property on each line p{ text-align: center; text-align: center; color: black; color: black; font-family: arial font-family: arial}
9
Grouping h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6{ color: green } All header elements will be displayed in green text color This is header h1 This is header h2 This is header h3 This is header h4
10
The class Selector With the class selector you can define different styles for the same type of HTML element. p.right {text-align: right} p.center {text-align: center} Using the class argument in (X)HTML: This paragraph will be right-aligned. This paragraph will be right-aligned. This paragraph will be center-aligned. This paragraph will be center-aligned.
11
Text color <html><head> h1 {color: green} h2 {color: #dda0dd} h2 {color: #dda0dd} p {color: rgb(0,0,255)} p {color: rgb(0,0,255)}</style></head><body> This is header 1 This is header 1 This is header 2 This is header 2 This is a paragraph This is a paragraph </body></html> This is header 1 This is header 2 This is a paragraph

Inserting Style sheet
13
Cascading order 1. Browser default 2. External style sheet inside external *.css file 3. Internal style sheet inside the tag 4. Inline style inside an HTML element
14
External Style Sheet Each webpage must link to the style sheet using the tag Browser reads styles definitions from mystyle.css file <head> </head>
15
Internal Style Sheet Internal Style Sheet Should be used when a single document has a unique style Defined in the head section by using the tag <head> hr {color: sienna} p {margin-left: 20px} body {background-image: url("images/back40.gi f")} </style></head>
16
Multiple Style Sheets An internal style sheet has following properties for the h3 selector: h3 { text-align: right; font-size: 20pt } External style sheet has these: h3 { color: red; text-align: left; font-size: 8pt } Your Web Browser has default formatting: h3 { color: black; font size: 10pt } What will be the format of tag? o color: red; o text-align: right; o font-size: 20pt
