Smartarse html question
xyle_one:
I found some info-
Introduction to CSS
http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/
I like css, but i haven't spent much time to actually learn it. I know some things, but the more intricate formatting just flies right past me.
basically, you create a new file, call it style.css. You will also have your html file. In that file, you will want to add this tag under <head>
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
A generic css doc looks like-
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
or more simply-
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---

Yup that's it, it the long run it's all about reusability, which is a good thing....do more with less ;)
There are a two main basic types of selector in CSS
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
for reusability you would use a class, as it can apply to many, referencing a style by id is if you just have one instance of that id.
you can also do some cool things like
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
Ideally all structural mark up should be just that, just content and structure, all styling wherever possible should be handled by css.
So if you want an image to have a 5px padding around it, but only if it is contained within a given tag by say id you could do something like:
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
Note that most box elements can also be styled thus:
--- Code: ---
--- End code ---
Here's a site I'm working on at the moment, the styles are entirely driven by CSS and the css is here.
You're more than welcome to rip any CSS off ;)
The site's not finished yet so there are a few errors :(
As ecsyle has already pointed out:
http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/
The only reference you should need,
