Study Notes
Overview of CSS
- CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet, a language for styling web pages, enhancing visual appeal compared to plain HTML.
- CSS controls the layout, colors, fonts, and dimensions of HTML elements, making webpages visually attractive.
Importance of CSS
- Essential for web developers and designers, providing foundational skills in web technologies.
- Understanding CSS facilitates learning other languages like JavaScript and PHP, and frameworks such as LaravelPHP, Bootstrap, and jQuery.
- CSS3 became popular in June 1999 and is the current version widely used today.
CSS Components
- CSS syntax consists of three parts: selector, property, and value.
- A selector specifies the HTML tag to style, a property defines the style to apply (e.g., color, font size), and a value specifies the property’s specification (e.g., red, 12px).
CSS Selectors
- Type Selector: Targets specific HTML tags. Example:
h1 { color: blue; }applies to all<h1>elements. - Universal Selector: Matches all HTML elements. Example:
* { color: red; }affects all elements on the page. - Class Selector: Selects elements by a specific class attribute, denoted by a period. Example:
.classname { property: value; }.
Positioning in CSS
- Position Property: Determines how an element is positioned within the document flow, with values like static, relative, absolute, and fixed.
- Relative Positioning: Allows elements to be adjusted from their original position with no impact on surrounding elements using
position: relative.
Display Property
- The display property controls how elements are displayed on the webpage, with possible values including
block,inline, andnone. - Changing an element's display property to
nonehides it completely from the view.
CSS Box Model
- The Box Model consists of margins, borders, padding, and the actual content area.
- Margin: Space outside an element.
- Border: Wraps the element with a defined width.
- Padding: Space inside the element, between the content and the border.
