Amd I right that this Code goes between the HEAD  Tags

<style  TYPE="text/css">
<!--

And this Code goes between the BODY Tags

background: black;
color: white;
a:link color: white;
a:visited color: blue;


And this Code meen this

background: black;        tells the page bacground color
color: white;                   this tells the text color
a:link color: white;        this tells a link what color to be
a:visited color: blue;       this tell a visited link what color to be

I think I am getting Embeded  CSS

If I put this inbetween the HEAD  Tags

<style type="text/css">
<!--
p {font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;}
-->
</style>


Then any were that I have text in the BOADY  Tags   before I start typing  I put a   P
the text will use    font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;

Am I right

Or do you have to put P1   and  P2

[kpac]

Am I right

Yes, you are.

[nymph4]

So before I start typing I type  P      or do I type   <P>   and wen I am doen the typing I end it </P>

Yes, now you can just forget about the CSS and write normal HTML.

ok so this

<style type="text/css">
<!--
p {font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;}
-->
</style>

is good for the font type  now what if I want to set the font size and color would I do this.

<style type="text/css">
<!--
p {font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;}
   {color: white;}
   {width: 15px;}
-->
</style>

is good for the font type  now what if I want to set the font size and color would I do this.

No, this:

Code: [Select]

<style type="text/css">
<!--
p {
   font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;
   color: white;
   width: 15px;
}
-->
</style>
The brackets go around the HTML element tag you are applying the style to, in this case "p".

I think I am getting it now.
So what if I have two Pareagraphs and I want them both to have diferant sizes I do this.

<style type="text/css">
<!--
p1 {
   font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;
   color: white;
   width: 14px;
}
p2 {
   font-family: helvetica, impact, sans-serif;
   color: white;
   width: 20px;
-->
</style>

anyone

[kpac]

Stop bumping the topic. It's only been one day.

So what if I have two Pareagraphs and I want them both to have diferant sizes I do this.

No.

I gave you this link before....http://w3schools.com/css/......did you read all the tutorial?

[nymph4]

Wen you use the <div style=  tags  and ad  font family  and size and so on  these tags are called  Inline  css???

And one thing I am trying to get the hang of  css  and I thought I would start with the  <div tags  because it is just  little code you ad here and there.

But take  HTML  to make text a certain size type and so on the code would be  something like this.
<font size="6" font type  times new roman?

I know I am off on this  I just want to  show you what I meen.

Now with <div it would be
<div style="text decoration none: font family; times new roman; size 15: color  wight">

Now I also know I am a little off here to  but  I just want to ask  css  seems like it goes on and on  and  HTML  just had like one line   and  thats that.

What am I not getting or understanding???

[kpac]

What.....

[nymph4]

I just need to know if I understand this?

<STYLE TYPE-"type/css">

<!--
BODY {background: #FFFFFF}
A:link {color: #80FF00}
A:visited {color: #FF00FF}
H1 {font-size: 24pt; font-family: arial}
H2 {font-size: 18pt; font-family: braggadocio}
H3 {font size:14pt; font-family: desdemona}
-->

</STYLE>

Wen I start typing in the body  if I give <H1  a font type  and  <H2  a diferant font type  and so on  as long as I have them all  defind like above  they will all be handeled with diferant fonts and so on??

This is how I can give  P1   and if I have P2  and they are two diferant types of font  and size   I just make sure they are  listed and handeled in the  above Style  section  right?

[nymph4]

if I am on the right train of thought then if I want have two paragraphs and I want eatch one to have a diferant pixal size then I do this


<style type="text.css">
<!--
body{bacground:#ffffff}
a:link{color:#80ff00}
a:visited{color:#ff00ff}
P1{font-size:14px;font-family:times new roman}
P2{font-size:20px;font-family:times new roman}
-->
</style>

Then in the <body> tags befor I type my first paragraph I type
<P1> then I type the text and end it </P1>

Then wen I type my secound paragraph before I type it I type
<P2> then I type my text and end it </P2>

Am I right again??
