Viewing a Web Page
After creating and saving an HTML document, you need to open it in a web browser to view it. To open
an HTML document in a web browser, open the folder in which you have saved the HTML document
and double-click it. The web page opens in your default web browser window.
INTRODUCING CSS3
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. It is used for designing or styling a web page. It handles and
describes how an HTML web page will be presented on a web browser. It helps save a lot of time, as one
design layout can be used to create multiple web pages. The latest version of CSS is CSS 3.
CSS comprises style rules that are interpreted by the web browser and then applied to the
corresponding elements in HTML web page. Syntax to create a style in CSS is:
selector{property1:value1; property2:value2; … …}
Where, selector refers to an HTML tag to which a style will be applied like <BODY>. The property1 is
a property of CSS that can be used to create a style and value1 is the valid value of the property. A
semicolon should be used at the end of the property-value if more than one property is used. However,
you can skip the semicolon if only one property is used.
All the properties and their values are enclosed within curly braces. For example, if you want to create a
style that fills a background colour in a web page, then you need to use the background-color property
of CSS in the following manner:
body {background-color:green}
In the preceding code, body signifies the <BODY> tag, background-color is the property and green is the
value of property that will change the background colour of the web page to green.
Using CSS Style
There are three ways to use the CSS styles in HTML document which are:
Inline style sheet
Internal Style Sheet
External Style Sheet
