  1. chapter4 A CSS Primer html: structure & content CSS: presentation & style

  2. Deprecated elements Once deprecated, tags may well become obsolete <font></font> <b></b> <i></i> <u></u> <strike></strike> <center></center>

  3. CSS terms style rule selector {property:value} examples h2 {color: red} h3 {color: #FF0000; text-align:center} p {color: navy; font-style:italic} h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { color: green } • Misc Resources folder/ 110 web resources/css

  4. Styles are stored in Style Sheets external: separate file internal: <style> element in head section inline/local: style property in tag

  5. internal style sheet <head> <style type="text/css"> body {background-color: ivory; color: navy} hr {color: sienna} p {font-family:”Verdana”} </style> </head>

  6. Inline styles (a.k.a. local styles) <h2 style=“color:red”> Local Styles </h2> <p style="color: sienna; text-align:center"> x-ray yankee zulu </p>

  7. External Style Sheet • Style rules stored in separate file(eg) /110/css/110.css • Connected to a client file using a link element

  8. External Style Sheet: /110/css/110.css external style sheets may contain only • css style rules • css comments (for documentation) •  no HTML allowed omit <style> element hr {color: sienna} p {color: sienna; text-align:center} body {background-image: url(“../images/back40.gif")}

  9. Client File/110/about/contact.html clients connect to the style sheet using the <link> tag. The <link> tag goes inside the head section: <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href=“../css/110.css" /> </head>

  10. External Style Sheets CSS is a breakthrough in Web design:  separates structure (html) from presentation (css) control the style of multiple Web pages all at once Define styles in an external style sheet and apply them to as many Web pages as you want To make a global change, simply change the style: all elements in the site are updated automatically

  11. Cascading Style Sheets Multiple Styles Cascade Into One Styles can be specified • inline • local • external Even multiple external style sheets can be referenced inside a single HTML document

  12. CascadingOrder What style will be used when there is more than one style specified for an HTML element? Styles will "cascade" by the following rules(number 1 has the highest priority): • Inline style • Internal style sheet (<style> element in the <head>) • External style sheet • Browser default So, an inline style (inside an HTML element) has the highest priority, which means that it will override a style declared inside the <head> tag, in an external style sheet, or in a browser (a default value).

  13. selectors:1. simple. 2. class. 3. id 1. simple: p {font-family:”Verdana”} 2. class: p.right {text-align: right} .center {text-align: center} • <p class="right"> This paragraph will be right-aligned. </p> • <p class="center"> This paragraph will be center-aligned. </p> • <h2 class=“center”> Zut Alors! </h2>

  14. Selectors (cont.) 3. id selector: h2#kermit {color: green} #alert {color: red}  <h2 id=“kermit”> Bein’ Green! </h2>  <p id=“alert”> Caveat Lector! </p>

  15. Descendant selectors Problem: specify a CSS rule that “applies to EM elements that are contained by an H1 element" Example: h1 { color: red } em { color: red }

  16. 4. Descendant selectors h1 { color: red } em { color: red } Although the intention of these rules is to add emphasis to text by changing its color, the effect will be lost in a case such as: <h1>This headline is <EM>very</EM> important</h1>

  17. 4. Descendant selectors Add a rule that sets the text color to blue whenever an em occurs anywhere within an h1 h1 { color: red } em { color: red } h1 em { color: blue }

  18. Descendant selectors Problem: specify a CSS rule that “applies to EM elements that are contained by an H1 element" Example: h1 { color: red } em { color: red }

  19. Classification of Elements:Block-level, Inline, List-item Block-Level Elements: Displayed on a line by itself p, h1, div, table, ol, ul, . . . Can only be contained by other block-level elements (with restrictions): • p can be in a div • p can not be in a p

  20. Classification of Elements:Block-level, Inline, List-item Inline Elements: Do not begin on a new line a, em, span, img, … Can be children of any other element List-item Elements: appear in lists

  21. CSS Display Property display values: block | inline | list-item | none applies to: all elements div#links a {display: block;} return to proj12

  22. CSS Box Model CSS assumes that every element is contained in an element box E-M-B-P-C = Edge-Margin-Border-Padding-Content The width of an element is the distance from the left side of the content to the right side of the content:

  23. Example using a class selector div.duckBox { background-color:yellow; color:green; border-style:double; border-color: green; padding: 10px; /* text-align applies only to the inline content of a block-level element. To center the div itself, use the following three properties */ margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; width:50%; }
