What is HTML?
What is PHP?
CSS file, which is used to format pages on websites and determine style rules, offers the opportunity to shape and reveal the visuality of websites. CSS, in other words, is a definition language with its own rules.
If you are interested in web design or are considering having a website built for your company; One of the first concepts you will encounter is CSS. Generally, people who have a website work with a designer or web design agency who can meet your CSS-related needs. But knowing what CSS is can make a difference in your communication with the designer or agency.
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. Essentially a language that governs the design and presentation of web pages, CSS works in conjunction with HTML (HyperText Markup Language), which renders the content of web pages.
With CSS, you can create rules for displaying information on your website. Also, fonts, colors, sizes, etc. You can create commands for content on topics. Since these style sheets can be more than one, they are called “cascading” and one style sheet is designated as the main page from which the others can take their features.
For many people, the plain old blog template is pretty good. If you want to change the appearance properties on the website, you will need to use CSS.
Three Style Sheets
There are three types of CSS style sheets; internal (inside), external (outside), inline (inline). External styles control how multiple pages appear on a website, while internal styles control the appearance of a page. Inline styles are for controlling only one element on a single page.
Simply put, more than one style sheet can be used and these sheets reference one another. Basically, inline pages override internal ones, and internal pages override external ones.
A stylesheet is created as a text editor to write CSS commands. This stylesheet is then linked to the HTML. Thus, the style rules of your website will be determined.
a:link {color:red;}
a:visited {color:purple;}
The code above is a sample CSS code. It means that a link that looks red before being visited will appear purple after being visited. But it does not require as much technical knowledge as it seems. Most people don’t need to manipulate the CSS page when editing a website. But if you want to make any customization on your website, you need to work on CSS.
