Lesson 4: Introduction into CSS

In this lesson the topic is about CSS. Well, what is CSS?

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheet. It defines how your HTML (HyperText Markup Language) elements are displayed. For example, it changes the background and design of your webpage, unlike the dull and boring one. In a normal webpage, what we see is only black and white, and if you add images which make your webpage more interesting. But if you link it to a CSS file, once you reopened the webpage, you will notice that it looks more beautiful and interesting.

Of course, it is hard for our teacher make us all understand everything about CSS, but he did taught us some basics. Some of what I learnt was what was mentioned above, what is a CSS. Well, to use CSS, we must first design a CSS file and save it in the same folder which you want your HTML file be linked to it. Also, note that a CSS file can link the whole HTML files in the same folder, which saves much more time.

This is all I learned(quite) in the lesson. I'm not so familliar with the CSS tags and codings yet, but I hope that I could understand this CSS file as soon as possible.
