CSS File
First, the following introduces CSS:
- CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets.
- Styles define how to display HTML elements.
- Styles were added to HTML 4.0 to solve a problem.
- External Style Sheets can save a lot of work.
- External Style Sheets are stored in CSS files.
- CSS makes websites look good.
These are the classes that I have used in the HTML code. In CSS a class starts with a dot (.).
@charset "utf-8";
