Cascading Style Sheet - CSS
What Is Cascading Style Sheet?
CSS (cascading stylesheets) is a simple way of controlling the style
of a Web document without compromising its structure.
It works by separating visual
design elements (fonts, colors, margins, and so on) from the structural
logic of a Web page, and this gives the Web designers the control they crave without
sacrificing the integrity of the data (content)- thus maintaining its usability in
multiple environments.
In addition, Web designers can define typographic design and page
layout by just adding a single, distinct block of code - without having to
resort to image maps, <font> tags, tables, and spacer GIFs, which allows
faster page downloads, streamlined site maintenance, and instantaneous global control of design attributes across multiple pages.
