Overview/Description
Cascading Style Sheets, commonly referred to as CSS, are a set of formatting conventions allowing you to standardize and enhance the appearance of a web site. By implementing CSS you can fully separate your web site's presentation from its content, and give the site a consistent feel. Dreamweaver CS4 provides increased CSS support, with the introduction of separate tabs on the Property inspector dividing general properties from CSS. This course explores this new interface feature along with other CSS features including a set of prebuilt CSS layouts complete with educational inline comments, access to the Adobe CSS Advisor web site, and CSS management features that facilitate moving CSS rules from page to page and converting inline CSS to CSS rules. This course examines the process of creating, editing, and applying the various types of cascading style sheets and style rules. CSS visual layout tools and advanced CSS techniques are also covered.
