When a browser reads a style sheet, it will format the document according to the information in the style sheet.


This tip I will show how to insert CCS to your website. There are 3 ways to insert CSS:
  • External style sheet
  • Internal style sheet
  • Inline style
1).  External Style Sheet
An external style sheet is ideal when the style is applied to many pages. With an external style sheet, you can change the look of an entire Web site by changing just one file.
Each page must include a link to the style sheet with the <link> tag. The <link> tag goes inside the head section:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>
An external style sheet can be written in any text editor. The file should not contain any html tags. The style sheet file must be saved with a .css extension. An example of a style sheet file is shown below:

"style.css":
hr {color: black;}
p {margin-left: 20px;}
body {background-image: url("images/background.gif");}
Note:  Do not add a space between the property value and the unit (such as margin-left: 20 px;). The correct way is: margin-left: 20px;

2). Internal Style Sheet
An internal style sheet should be used when a single document has a unique style. You define internal styles in the head section of an HTML page, inside the <style> tag, like this:

<head> <style>  
       hr {color: black;}
       p {margin-left: 20px;}
      body {background-image: url("images/backround.gif");}
   </style>
</head>
3). Inline Styles
An inline style loses many of the advantages of a style sheet (by mixing content with presentation). Use this method sparingly!
To use inline styles, add the style attribute to the relevant tag. The style attribute can contain any CSS property. The example shows how to change the color and the left margin of a paragraph:
<p style="color: black; margin-left: 20px;">This is a paragraph.</p>
Note: If the link to the external style sheet is placed after the internal style sheet in HTML <head>, the external style sheet will override the internal style sheet!
