Slide 3 - Styles § Session 03 - Introduction to CSS

Styles

The markup page references an external stylesheet document.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Our Solar System</title>
    <!-- the link element is used to reference a stylesheet -->
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/solarsystem.css" />

The CSS file contains style rules for the document (solarsystem.css)
