Chapter Summary: Control at a Price!
Wow, this chapter was packed with new concepts and vocabulary. It will take a few more reads/excercises and tons of real life experience before the nuances of Style Sheets are intuitive.
Highpoints:
Cascade – indicates hierarchy – for the Browser (vs. designer’s need for organization). Style sheets help the Browser determine in what order to honor styles.
Good News – Page Properties is easy to use, and easy to duplicate for alot of pages by taking the properties and bundling them together as a style sheet to apply in one swoop, great.
Tricky part – unfamiliar tag definitions that are not so easy to guess. “p” is easy, but “td” not so obvious.
