    Styling Definition Lists with the BlueTrip CSS Framework


    (Page 1 of 4 )

    Welcome to the fifth part of a seven-part series on the BlueTrip CSS framework. In this part, you'll learn how to style definition lists with BlueTrip and how to assign its default “fancy” CSS classes to a few H2 and H3 headers. You'll see that this flexible framework allows you to apply different styles to web page elements in a quick and simple manner.

    In the last few months, a new CSS framework has gained considerable popularity with many web designers due to its remarkable styling capabilities. These capabilities permit developers to create consistent web page layouts very quickly and with minor effort.

    As you might have guessed, I'm talking about BlueTrip, an impressive framework that claims to gather in one single piece of software the best features provided by two other contending frameworks, BluePrint and Tripoli. Thus, if you feel intrigued and want to learn how to start using the BlueTrip CSS framework for developing your own web sites, then this series of articles might be what you need.

    And now that you know what to expect from this group of tutorials, it's time to review the topics that were covered in the last one. In that specific part of the series, I explained how to use the default styles provided by BlueTrip to polish the visual appearance of unordered and ordered HTML lists. It was an easy-to-grasp process.

    As you may have realized, though, the BlueTrip CSS framework comes with many other default CSS classes that permit you to easily style other common HTML elements, such as forms, tables, definition lists and so forth.

    Therefore, in this fifth chapter of this series I'm going to explain how to style definition lists with BlueTrip. Additionally, you'll learn how to assign the "thin" CSS classes that you learned in the previous articles for other HTML headers.

    Are you ready to continue exploring all of these useful features offered by the BlueTrip CSS framework? Then let's get started.
