  4. Cascading Style Sheets • Style sheets come in three types: • Inline • Part of the tag<h1 style=“color: #6887c”> • Inside text<strong>HELP!</strong> • Embedded • In the <head> tag • Just for this page • Linked (or External) • On a separate sheet • Controls all the pages linked to it. Preferred!

  5. Preferred? Why? • Format your site consistently • Redefine existing tags • Create styles for commonly used elements • Navbars • Headlines • Define styles that align and position elements – divs (divisions) • Make global changes

  6. Cascading? The term Cascading, refers to which element takes precedence when it comes to styling a page, a line, or any other element on the page. Generally, the closer the better • Class wins over • Internal wins over • External

  7. How does it work? • CSS Rule: • h1 {color: #6887c;} Declaration block Selector

  8. Selectors

  9. RedefineExisting tags • Type/Tag selectors • Style all the tags on a Web consistently • (h1, h2, body . . . ) • Found in or are part of the HTML code • There are two types of CSS tags • Class • ID

  10. Or, Create your own -- Class • Class selectors • Can be used many times on a page • Formats selected things • Naming • Starts with a . • No spaces • No other punctuation • CSS Example: .sidebarLeft • HTML Example: <p class=“sidebarLeft”> </p>

  11. Create your own -- ID • ID selectors • Identify specific items (#navbar, #footer) • Should be unique to the page • Can only be used once • Naming • Starts with a # • Case sensitive • No spaces • CSS Example: #footer • HTML Example: <p ID=“footer”> </p>
