Inline Style Sheet

            An inline style is used to apply a unique style for a single element. The style attribute an element
            allows you to create and apply a style on the element. Syntax to create an inline style is:

            <element style = "property1:value1; property2:value2; … ….">

            where the element is any valid HTML tag and style is the global attribute of HTML used by all
            the tags in HTML. The style attribute contains all the CSS properties and their values within
            double-quotes. For example:

            <body style="background-color:green; color:white">

            Text in white colour
            </body>
            Internal Style Sheet

            CSS design can also be applied into a HTML document by using <STYLE> tag. This tag should be
            placed inside the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags. An internal style sheet is commonly used when
            one web page has a unique style. For example:

            <head>

            <style>

            body{background-color:green; color:white;}
            </style>

            </head>

            <body>

            Text in white colour
            </body>
            External Style Sheet

            In case of external stylesheet, the CSS styles are written in a separate file which is saved with
            .css extension. You need to include a reference to the external style sheet file within the <LINK>

            element inside the <HEAD> element. Syntax to include the reference of external stylesheet is:
            <head>

            <link rel=“stylesheet” type=“text/css” href=“name of style sheet”>
            </head>

            Where, HREF attribute contains the path of the stylesheet. For example, if you have saved the file
            in which styles are written with the name style.css, then the code will be:

            <head>
            <link rel=“stylesheet” type=“text/css” href="style.css">

            </head>


                                                                       Introduction to HTML5 and CSS3        71
