    Cascading Style Sheets: The How and the Why


    (Page 1 of 6 )

    Cascading Style Sheets have been around for a while now, and act as a complement to plain old HTML files. If you're new to HTML, then take a couple of minutes to learn a thing of two... you'll be surprised what you can do with style sheets!

In this article, I'm going to describe what cascading style sheets are, their benefits, and two ways to implement them.

    To continue, you should feel comfortable with the HTML document syntax. A small grasp on JavaScript will help, but isn't required.
