Cascading Style Sheet, CSS is
a concept
first created
by Håkon
Wium Liein 1994.
In December 1996,
CSS was made a specification by the W3C and
today
allows web developers to create
and easily change how their web pages look and feel. For example, CSS
may define how each page looks by defining the fonts used, colors,
padding, etc. within a css file. The CSS file could be linked to from
multiple pages and if the developer ever wanted to change
the look or feel of
all of those pages they would only need to change one file instead of
all files.
The CSS code first shown on this page can
be copied
and pasted into a file named example.css. A CSS file can
be created using any text
editor or even Notepad if
you're using Windows. After the file has been saved, to load that file
it must
linked to in the <HEAD></HEAD>
section of
the HTML code. CSS3 is
the version of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) that replaces CSS2. It
introduces a number
of new selectors and properties
that allow for more flexibility
with page layout and presentation. Some
updates, such as the
box-shadow property (which allows
a drop-shadow to
be
added to an element), allow visual effects to be applied without needing
images to achieve them.
