Study Notes
Font and CSS Basics
- A style sheet provides top-level formatting for a page, typically formatting body and HTML5 semantic elements.
- An external style sheet simplifies HTML files and offers consistent formatting across pages, but CSS files are not necessarily easier to maintain.
- The measurement unit "em" corresponds to the font size of the current font.
CSS Color Specifications
- CSS allows color specification using various methods, with "color: getColor('red');" being invalid.
- RGBA and HSLA color formats in CSS3 enable the specification of color opacity.
CSS Selectors
- Class selectors use a period before the class name, for example, ".menu" is a valid class selector.
- Child selectors pinpoint direct descendants of an element, while pseudo-class selectors apply formatting based on specific conditions.
- In conflicts between CSS rules, the rule marked !important prevails.
Selector Specificity
- The selector "#nav" is more specific than both ".nav" and "div".
- To target elements with the class "hot" within a div with the ID "header", use the selector "#header a.hot".
Text Shadow Properties
- When adding shadows to text in CSS, you can set the shadow color, determine the horizontal and vertical offset, and control the blur amount, but setting the opacity of the shadow is not an option.
