Fourth IS Lesson : The CSS

In this lesson, we were introduced to the Cascading Style Sheet (CSS). (Good news, our teacher had posted the answers for last week's tough worksheet on www.webnewmedia.com!) CSS defines how html elements are displayed. And as same as html, when we save the file, we save the name with ".css" at the end. Like "mypage.css". One of its big advantages is that it can change the appearance and the layout of multiple pages all at once. Which means that we do not need to change the appearance and layout of the multiple pages one by one.

CSS can also change the colour and fonts of words, layout and colour of a webpage...... Which means that the webpage will not be dull and boring black and white but it will be full of colours and excitement with CSS. CSS, like html, requires and has confusing code structures and we have to memorize them to use them. This is the part I hated most as I am poor at memorizing and the code structures of CSS are more complex and confusing than the code structures of html. Our teacher told us to learn more of CSS in a lesson forum in www.webnewmedia.com. From the lesson forum, I learnt some code structures or tags that change the background colour, word colour and how to embed external media.

In conclusion, CSS is harder than I thought.
