CSS is a rule based language - you define rules specifying groups of styles that should be applied to particular elements or groups of elements on your web page.
CSS can be added to HTML documents in 3 ways :
You can apply as many tags as you want. The CSS tags apply style to the content
In HTML 5, the <h1> element may have the attributes "class" and "style". In older versions of HTML (such as 4.01), other attributes such as "align" were supported, but these have been deprecated and removed in HTML 5 in favor of CSS.
"class" is an attribute of most if not all HTML tags. To apply a CSS class to a tag, simply make the class attribute equal to that CSS class. For example, suppose you have a CSS class called bigRed that makes text large and red. If you want to apply it to a certain text, just put it in a tag surrounding that text. e.g. . . . but my <span class='bigRed' >car</span> was faster than . . .
This is not a tag. It is an attribute and part of CSS
to modify any HTML tag just type the tag as the css property eg. ul { /*your css here*/ }
instead of putting your CSS in a separate file, you can append it to the HTML tag itself like so: <span style="color: #000000; font-weight: bold;"> this is highly unrecommended though, because if you do your styling that way, you have a lot of mixing between HTML and CSS and editing the style (e.g. replacing large portions of CSS code to apply a new design to a site) WILL be a pain.
HTML style tag is used to define CSS in HTML. It is used to style the page according to the user demans.
Allot of the time people just use a css document or you can just use a brace tag (specified as <br />) which is a tag that works in both HTML and html5. The brace tag is also a self ending tag and doesn't have any attributes that you can add so most of the time its a good idea to us a css document but a brace tag works too. Hope this helps <:
an inline style sheet is directly placed inside of an HTML document using the <style></style> tags, but CSS styles can be placed on almost any HTML tag. To specify an HTML tag in your selector, just write out the tag without a leading qualifier (. for class, # for id) so you would have something like span{ //css rules here }
HTML tag provides the charset, version number to the browser. It also passes the various attributes to the browser.
The BR tag has only the core tags, which all HTML tags have. These are id, class, style and title.
You can find a lot on CSS at the w3schools website:http://w3schools.com/css/default.aspIn general, you can apply CSS directly to an HTML element in-line using the style attribute:Link TextYou can define CSS in a style HTML tag in the head of the document:....RedLink {color: #f00;}...Or you can put your CSS in a separate file or Stylesheet and embed it in the head of the document:......A typical way of having those CSS properties applied to an HTML element is using the class attribute (which is defined by a leading period (.) in the CSS itself:Link Text
