A Basic CSS File to Start Playing With

body { font-size: 1.0em; background-color: #f0f0f0; } header { background-color: #22BB32; border: 2px solid #000; border-radius: 5px; margin-top: 0; padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; font-size: 1.6em; font-weight: bold; } footer { margin-top: 10px; font-size: 1.0em; font-style: italic; border-top: 2px solid #000; } img.border { border:2px solid #000; } code { font-family: monospace; font-size: 1.0em; } div.box { display: inline-block; border: 2px solid #000; padding: 10px; background-color: white; font-size: 1.0em; font-family: monospace; white-space: pre-wrap; }

Add a Font Face?

Search the web for fonts. Download the font file(s) to use them. (I put them in the same folder as my web pages so I can find them.)

Question: which fonts are built into the browser you are using?

@font-face { font-family: ArchitectsDaughter; src: url('ArchitectsDaughter.ttf'); } body { font-size: 1.0em; font-family: Verdana,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; background-color: #f0f0f0; } header { font-family: ArchitectsDaughter; background-color: #22BB32; border: 2px solid #000; border-radius: 5px; margin-top: 0; padding-top: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; font-size: 1.6em; font-weight: bold; } footer { margin-top: 10px; font-size: 1.0em; font-style: italic; border-top: 2px solid #000; }
