Types - External Style Sheet
How can I have a external style sheet?
I want to have a separate file containing all my styles, how to do it.
Explanation
This will be very useful when we have so many styles defined. We will want to take all the styles in to a different file. That's what we do in External CSS. We take all the styles in a external file and map it with the html page.
Example:
We will put the following style in a text file say mystyle.css
<style>
.mystyle1
{
color: green;
background-color: orange;
}
</style>
.mystyle1
{
color: green;
background-color: orange;
}
</style>
In our head we will link to the external style sheet using the tag link in header portion
Tag:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css"/>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css"/>
</head>
The names used for user defined styles should not belong to any html tag. We set the style for the tag using the attribute "class".
Example1:
<font class=mystyle1> MY STYLE </font>
Result1:
MY STYLE
Example2:
<a href="index.php" class=mystyle1> MY STYLE </a>
