9. Syntax
A CSS rule-set consists of a selector and a declaration block:
The selector points to the HTML element you want to style.
The declaration block contains one or more declarations
separated by semicolons.
Each declaration includes a CSS property name and a value,
separated by a colon.
A CSS declaration always ends with a semicolon, and
declaration blocks are surrounded by curly braces.
In the following example all <p> elements will be center-
aligned, with a red text color:
12. Inline style sheet
• Inline styles are CSS styles that are applied to one
element, directly in the page's HTML, using the style
attribute
• The inline style uses the HTML "style" attribute. This
allows CSS properties on a "per tag" basis.
13. How to Write an Inline Style
You write your style property similar to
how you would in a style sheet, but it
needs to be all one line.
Separate multiple properties with a
semi-colon just as you would in a style
sheet
14. Advantages of Inline Styles
1. Inline styles are easy and quick to add you
2. Do not need to worry about writing the
proper CSS
3. You don't need to create a whole new
document
4. just add the style attribute that is valid on
nearly every HTML element.
15. Disadvantages of Inline Styles
• They can over-ride things you didn't intend
them to
• They cause problems and make the
pages a lot more work to maintain
16. Inline Styles Are Not Best Practice
Inline styles don't separate content
from design
Inline styles cause more maintenance
headaches
inline styles make your pages bigger
Inline styles are not as accessible
17. Inline Style Sheet
• An inline CSS is used to apply a unique style to a
single HTML element.
• An inline CSS uses the style attribute of an HTML
element.
• Example
<h1 style="color:blue;">This is a Blue Heading</h1>
18. Syntax use to create an inline style
<element-name style="property: value;">
In the above: element-name refers to the targetted HTML element
• property refers to a CSS property
• value refers to an associated CSS value
• Multiple CSS property/value pairs can be used in the same style attribute.
This is demonstrated by the following syntax:
<element-name style="property: value; property: value; property:
value;">
19. Here's a few things to remember about inline CSS
syntax:
• The property and its associated value are separated by
a colon (:)
• Each property/value pair ends with a semi-colon (;)
• When using multiple word values, the multiple word
string must be enclosed in single quotation marks to
avoid prematurely ending the style attribute
23. Background color
This value sets the background color for the current element.
A 'background-color' can be specified either alone or in
conjunction with a 'background-image'. When used with a
background image, it can still serve several purposes:
• 1) to fill transparent regions of the background image
• 2) for display while the background image is loading
• 3) the browser has image loading capability turned off
• 4) if the background image display settings will not cover all
of the browser display area.
27. Background Image
• This value indicates the URL source for the graphic. If this
property is present
• 'background-repeat‘
• 'background-attachment'
• 'background-position'
31. Background repeat
• If a 'background-image' is specified, this value
specifies how the image is repeated if the
image is not large enough to cover the entire
element. All image rendering covers the
content and padding areas of the element's
box.
32. Allowed Values
• Repeat
Image is repeated (tiled) both vertically and
horizontally.
• repeat-x
Image is repeated (tiled) horizontally only (to
the left and right) of the originating position.
33. Allowed Values
• repeat-y
Image is repeated (tiled) vertically only
(upwards and downwards) of the originating
position.
• no-repeat
Image is not repeated. Only a single
occurrence of the background image behind
the current element is used, at the specified
position.
35. Background Attachment
• if a 'background-image' is specified, this value
indicates whether or not the background image will
move when the browser window is scrolled to view
text outside the current display area.
• Fixed
• Scroll
37. Background Position
• The values for this property translate to space separated X/Y
coordinates of the browser window. Minimum values are at
the upper-left corner of the display area and maximum values
are at the lower-right corner. These values are normally
represented as a pair, but omitting a value is legal - the
missing value is assumed to be the y-axis coordinate and is set
to the default 'center' value.
41. Font color
• This property describes the color of text within an element.
Values for the property outside the specified ranges will be
clipped or truncated to create a valid value.
Description:
This is a representation of the values for Red/Green/Blue
used to determine a final display color.
