CIS 430 Assignment 3 -- CSS
Create an external cascading style sheet and link it to
your intro page.
Be sure to do the following:
- Put your style sheet in a subfolder named "CSS."
- Set your document background to some shade
of light gray. Use the color charts at
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp or
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colorsfull.asp.
- Set the document font family to Verdana,
Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif.
- Set the paragraph font size to 1.2em.
- Set the paragraph font color to 3300FF
(a shade of blue).
- Set the heading font-size to 1.8em.
- Set the heading font-style to italic.
- Set the heading alignment to center.
- Set the heading to be underlined.
- Set the heading font color to red.
- Save your style sheet as
style_sheet.css.
- Add a link in the xhtml version of your
intro page to the new style sheet.
Here is an example image
of a page with a similar CSS.
Note--If you don't have something designated
as a heading in your intro page, include a heading.
Be sure to
validate your page using the
"Validate by direct input" option.
Note: If you attempt to cut from a browser and
paste into Frontpage you will get additional formatting characters.
Instead paste into Notepad, then cut from Notepad and paste into Frontpage.
That removes the extraneous formatting.
