Overview

CSS or cascading style sheets is a web coding language used in combination with a markup language to define how web content will be presented to the end user.

Example:
The text you are reading is the content of this webpage. I have "marked up" that content with HTML code so as to distinguish titles from other titles, and paragraphs from other paragraphs. CSS is the code that tells your browser how these distinguished blocks of content should be presented. CSS specifies the color, font, justification, padding, size, and position among other things.

For a very nice definition of CSS, please read the CSS Wikipedia entry.

In order to use CSS you must first understand and be able to code your content using a markup language like HTML. CSS depends on correct HTML markup, so if you haven't already, please read our HTML Markup section and learn how to properly markup your content with HTML.

As discussed in our HTML section we are going to be using the HTML tags and any ID's or class names associated with those tags, to access that particular content and style it appropriately with CSS.

You are now ready for a step-by-step tutorial for learning CSS coding. Please walk through the CSS tutorial and feel free to return to Tastyseed if you have any questions or when you are ready to continue!

Have fun!
