External Style Sheets

Creating an External Style Sheet

Creating an external style sheet is quite easy. Just follow these steps:

  1. Write the styles in page of their own, to make a separate document for them.
  2. Write them just as you would write the document level styles ~ but do not enclose them within the <style> tags.
  3. Give the file almost any name that you may wish to give it.
  4. Save the file with this extension: .css

Let's create an external style sheet for our Little Miss Muffett's styles. Let's call it muffett.css. Take a look at muffett.css. Focus on it.
