 Practical HTML, CSS and JavaScript

       Session 2: CSS Fundamentals
Agenda

● What do we have so far
● What is CSS
● Including CSS in your documents
● Block-level elements properties
● Setting up the layout of the document
● CSS properties and selectors to learn today
● Class and home exercises
What do we have so far

●   Documents
    ○   index.html
●   HTML tags in practice
    ○   paragraphs, spaces and breaks
    ○   links, images
●   CSS we have
    ○   none so far
●   JavaScript we have
    ○   none so far
What is CSS

● CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets
● Styles define how to display HTML elements
● External style sheets save a lot of work
● External style sheets are stored in CSS files
What is CSS - Example
Methods of including CSS

●   Inline styles
Placed inside the HTML document, style information on a single element,
specified using the style attribute
●   Embedded style
Blocks of CSS information inside the HTML itself
●   External style sheets - highly recommended
Separate CSS file is referenced.
●   Import
Importing CSS file from another CSS file when many files are to be edit
Rule of thumb

When styling a HTML element, the closer the CSS rule is to
the given element, it overrides any preceding CSS rules
before that.


By importance: Link > Import > Embedded > Inline


Note: Override any rule with the !important property.
Practice

Doing: Try the 4 methods of including CSS


At the end: separate file style.css in css folder
Block-level elements

● May appear only within a <body> element
● Typically formatted with line breaks
● May contain both inline and other block-level elements
● Contain "larger" structures
Block-level elements




                       Source: MDN
Inline elements

● May contain only data and other inline elements
● By default, do not begin with a new line


List of inline elements:
●   b, big, i, small, tt
●   abbr, acronym, cite, code, dfn, em, kbd, strong, samp, var
●   a, bdo, br, img, map, object, q, script, span, sub, sup
●   button, input, label, select, textarea


                                                                 Source: MDN
Setting up the layout - the source
Setting up the layout - browser
Practice

Doing: Setup the header, content and footer regions.


At the end: an index.html file with HTML markup for
header, content and footer div containers, together with a
CSS file (empty)
Display property

● Sets the way to display a HTML element
● Most popular values
  ○ none - not displayed at all
  ○ block - displayed as a block-level element
  ○ inline - default value, displayed as an inline element
  ○ table - displayed as a table
Width and height properties

● height property sets the height of the
  element
● width property sets the height of the element


Both could take dimensions in px, pt, etc., or
percentage metrics.
Values can also be auto or inherit.
Float properties

● Property to specify whether or not an
  element should float.
● Property options
  ○ left
  ○ right
  ○ none - default value
Clear properties

● Property to specify which sides of an
  element do not allow other floating elements
● Property options
  ○ left/right
  ○ both - most common use
  ○ none
Position property

●   Specifies the type of positioning method used for an element
●   Property options
    ○   static - elements render in the same order they are in the document
    ○   absolute - relative to the first positioned (not static) ancestor element
    ○   fixed - relative to the browser window
    ○   relative - relative to its normal position
Border property

● Sets properties for the outline of the element
● Shorthand for setting all properties at once
● Property options
   ○ border-width
   ○ border-style
   ○ border-color
Padding and margin properties

● Padding - space between content of an
  element and its border. Negative values are
  not allowed.
● Margin - space between element border and
  elements next to it. Negative values are
  allowed.
CSS box model
Practice

Doing: Write the CSS to visualize the layout


At the end: an index.html file with HTML markup for
header, content and footer div containers, together with a
CSS file with selectors and properties to visualize the
markup well enough so one can "see" the divisions.
Summary: HTML study

● Block-level and inline elements in HTML

  ○ html, head, body
  ○ header, content, sidebar and footer
  ○ navigation
