CSS: Cascading Style Sheets
CSS consists of three main parts: a selector, a property, and a value.
#selector {property: value};
The selector is a HTML tag you want to define. The property is the part of the selection that you want to change. The value is the way/amount that you want to change the property of the selection.
*NOTE*: The selector is prefixed by the pound sign to let the CSS know that you are not defining the tag, just altering the appearance.
The content inside the curly brackets is the attribute of the tag you wish to change, and after the semi-colon is the value you want the attribute to take.
If your value is several words, like:
#selector {font-family: "sans serif"}
Put the words in quotes.
CSS is not line-sensitive. This means that the lines of CSS can be arranged as follows:
#selector {font-family: "sans serif"; color: black; valign: top; }
This allows your CSS to be more readable.
