Where does CSS go?
-
Inline
-
In the head
-
In a separate file
CSS
Use a separate CSS file
It is best practice to put CSS in it's own file and link to it from the <head> !
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css">
CSS BREAK DOWN
p{
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
}
The whole thing is called a rule.
The p is called a selector.
It is followed by a set of declarations in a declaration block
CSS BREAK DOWN
p{
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
}
What is this?
p{
color: red;
font-weight: bold;
}
p{
color: blue;
}
CSS is read top to bottom
What comes below, can override what came above
This is called the Cascade
CSS BREAK DOWN
Why might we want to link to a separate CSS file?
