CASCADING STYLE SHEETS (CSS)

With Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) you can standardized the look and feel of your Web page(s). You can define properties to each of the tags and of those tags that are displayed LOCALLY (in the current Web page) or GLOBALLY (in all Web pages).

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>CSS EXAMPLE 1: USED LOCALLY</TITLE>

<!--hide CSS properties in comment-->
<style type="text/CSS">
<!--
H1 {color:red}
-->
</style>

</HEAD>
<BODY>
<H1>This is in Red</H1>
</BODY>
</HTML
>

Notice that the CSS properties are defined in the <HEAD></HEAD> of the Web page. The style of the H1 tag is described inside the parenthesis; the color property is defined by what follows the colon (:)
