Cascading Style Sheet http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS1 http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/css/ ---- A 30 Second look at CSS. CSS Cascading Style Sheets Style sheets provide a separation of presentation from the information. They are a named collection of attribute property pairs. The style properties correspond to html element properties. There are two levels CSS1 and CSS2 ? They have introduced 3D positioning and sizing to html elements. Unforunately CSS uses different property names then html ? These style properties can be dynamically set in JavaScript thru even another name convention. Styles are applied to html elements of a given type , html elements grouped in a or
block or html elements whose class/id attribute is set to the style name. New Html elements are introduced to support Styles. Defines-delimits a group of htmlElements and optionally names it. If you assign its class attribute with a style its grouping of elements will be stylized by it. Style assignment is as follows: class="someStyle".
Same as Span but will draw the block on a newline. This breaks the flow. It can also be sized,autosized and positioned and given a z-depth. This uses the id rather than the class attribute for assignment: id="someStyle". There also is the idea of floating the the block element to some alignment direction. This will cause the next item to flow around the floated item. I guess a better way than a table to flow text around an image. (See Figure 1) Html tag Style element (eg.) .

For unseperated list, see Nesting. (eg. LI, EM ,SPAN { name:val;...} Each of the HtmlClasses will be stylized by these settings. '''Nesting''' HtmlElement node hiearchy. The most specific is the child (eg. ... < Child Element sytle="font-size:20pt"> ... ... ) Parent Child relationship of HtmlElement Classes. (eg. UL UL {color:red} ) If you have a UL child of UL parent this property will be used. '''Applying''' inline see and
