nickmealey 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Cascading Stylesheets, or CSS, is a very easy way to spice up your web site. The thing I like about CSS, is it gives you a more extended version for styles. The <font> tag for example is very limited with what it can do. With CSS though, you can do numerous things. from mouseovers (a:hover) to just changing a simple paragraph tag to a fancy one. there are two ways to incorperate the style sheet. the first one is to just put it inside your page: <html><head><style>all the stuff would go here-</style></head><body></body></html>the second way is to link it to an outside source:<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/css/styles.css"></head></html> now, in css:<style>p {color: blue;font-family: "tahoma";font-size: 15px;}</style> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What are the other options other than block that I can use?The other values for display depend on what element they are defined. For example display: list-item is only available to lists. W3Schools has a list of valid values. If you want to learn more about CSS, I recommend reading through the W3Schools CSS tutorial. Which should be faster than downloading some software and going through its helpfiles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carsten 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2005 In addition to your tutorial and to make the markup code more valid, change <style> to <style type="text/css">. Average tutorial, you could explain more and go a little more indepth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Right-click on it and select "New CSS Style". You can use CSS to create styles for any imaginable object, but for this example, I'll create a style for body paragraphs (that is, the text between <p> tags). Now, you can either create a new class (which I'll explain shortly), redefine an html tag, or use a CSS selector (a:link, a:hover, a:visited, a:active). If you define a new class, you'll want to give it a descriptive name preceded by a period, for example, ".body". To apply this style to a paragraph inside my main html page, I need only to type '<p class="body">'. If you decide to redefine an html tag, simply select the <p> tag from the dropdown menu, and then all <p> tags within the html page will be affected by the new style. And the CSS selectors merely affect link behavior. Once you've chosen a style type, you must choose whether you are going to define your new style in the html page ("global"), or in a special CSS page ("linked"). There is a third option ("local") which consists of adding the CSS into the individual tags (like so: <p style="font-family: georgia, times new roman, serif">) but Dreamweaver will not help you with that, so you must actually learn CSS to use that method. I think the rest is pretty self-explanatory. If anyone has any questions about CSS or design in general, feel free to ask me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
