Lesson 6

We got the revision list for next week's test and a summary of all the subjects that we have (or should have) learnt on infocomm. The test comprised of many topics that were to be revised online through powerpoint documents, acrobat reader and other online websites. I do not know what my results will be, I just hope that my studying would be adequate enough.

Lesson 4 - Cascading Style Sheet (CSS)

NOTE: ALL '<' AND '>' WILL BE REPLACED BY '(' AND ')' RESPECTIVELY.

This lesson taught me how to use external CSS to format an entire page. The CSS could connect to a page through a link that is found after (title)...(/title) but before (/head) . This allows one to change and format webpages with the same format just by linking to the stylesheet. This feature is convenient and useful and it also makes formatting easier by separating content and format from each other. The result? A better, more organised HTML coding that allows one to easily change any feature of the design or content of the website. An example is as follows:

body
{
background-color: #000000;
}
h1
{
color: white;
text-align: center;
}
p
{
font-family: "Verdana";
font-size: 15px;
}

One may also change the margins and how the website appears in the browser through the use of external CSS.
