HTML Styles
With HTML 4.0 all formatting can be moved out of the HTML document and into a
separate style sheet.
Examples

How to Use Styles
When a browser reads a style sheet, it will format the document according to
it. There are three ways of inserting a style sheet:
External Style Sheet
An external style sheet is ideal when the style is applied to many pages.
With an external style sheet, you can change the look of an entire Web site by
changing one file. Each page must link to the style sheet using the <link>
tag. The <link> tag goes inside the head section.
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyle.css">
</head>
|
Internal Style Sheet
An internal style sheet should be used when a single document has a unique
style. You define internal styles in the head section with the <style>
tag.
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {background-color: red}
p {margin-left: 20px}
</style>
</head>
|
Inline Styles
An inline style should be used when a unique style is to
be applied to a single occurrence of an element.
To use inline styles you use the style attribute in the relevant tag. The
style attribute can contain any CSS property. The example shows how to change
the color and the left margin of a paragraph:
<p style="color: red; margin-left: 20px">
This is a paragraph
</p>
