Cascading Style Sheets
Separate Content From Design Elements
Cascading style sheets (CSS) enable users to separate the content of their website from the design elements of their website. Once the document is "built", any changes to the look of the page can be made in the style sheets. The changes are made once and then take effect throughout the entire site. This makes the site much easier to maintain and, if necessary, change a small part of it or its entire site.
Other reasons why CSS is fast becoming the preferred way to build websites today include:
- Style sheets allow organizations to modify the "look" of their website without completely redesigning their site.
- Style sheets can be pointed to from Web documents via hyperlinks. This dramatically simplifies the maintenance of websites.
- Style sheets improve the printing of Web documents. Paper has different properties than a computer screen, and the differences can be accounted for in a style sheet.
- People with disabilities have better access to your pages. Visually impaired Web users may need increased font sizes and will be among the first to benefit from style sheets.
