CSS = Cascading Style Sheets
Styles saved in external .css files – External Style Sheets enable you to change the appearance and layout of all the pages in a web site by editing one file.
{ and } used to define declaration groups
CSS declaration always ends w/semicolon ex. {color:green; text-align:right;}
I don’t quite understand comments – will they display on the web page, or are they just for use in editing code?
3 ways to insert a style sheet: external, internal and inline
External = style applied to many pages
Internal = used when a single doc has unique style
Inline = mixes content w/presentation – has highest priority inside an HTML element
There are many background and text-formatting options – I wonder whether people can really use this so often that they memorize it, or if they always use code sheets!
Interesting to learn which fonts are easier to read…
The quiz is helpful in trying to apply this stuff – but it is disappointing that when you review your answers is doesn’t display the choices, correct answer, and your answer. That would make it easier to know what you need to learn.
This seems simple enough. Again, it would be nice to have a simple code sheet on hand – so I don’t have to search through a tutorial to create meaning from all this nonsense code.
This seems to repeat a lot of what I already read in the first two pages. I understand how the code works, and I am not going to memorize it because I won’t use it enough right now to make memorizing it useful, so it seems silly to re-read another explanation of how the code works.
