1. Short for Cascading Style Sheet, CSS is a specification first
completed in 1996 by W3C
that enables a web developer to create a look and feel for his or
her page. For example, CSS may define how each of the pages look
by defining the fonts used, colors, table borders, etc within a .css
file. The CSS file
could then be loaded onto any web page and if the developer ever
wanted to change the look or feel of their pages could simply change
the CSS file instead of editing each page. Below is a basic example of
CSS code that could be stored in a .css file, in this example the CSS code is defining the type of fonts
to be used in the page, the color of the links, color of the visited
links, and color of the links when the mouse is over the link.

body {
font: normal 100% "trebuchet ms", Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif;
}
a {
color: #000000;
}
A:visited {
color: #005177;
}
a:hover {
color: #005177;
}
|
The above CSS code could be within the HTML of each of the pages
using the below code or can be stored in a separate file and called
with <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="URL or path to
css file here">
|
<style type "text/css">
<!--
above code inserted here
-->
</style>
