Week 9 Reading Notes
Cascading Style Sheets
Thoughts and Reflections:
I thought it was really interesting to learn about how HTML
is written. I’ve never actually put that much thought into how web pages are
created; they were always just there. However, knowing now how much work is put
into the creation, I have a whole new appreciation for people who write HTML.
It seems to be tedious work, but I can see the benefit of learning the basic
fundamentals for any job dealing with the information sciences. I really like
the concept of Cascading Style Sheets because they allow a person to design
HTML web pages without being an expert on the syntax…Especially since each
action, font, background, etc. has its own command. Obviously both HTML and CSS
can get complicated the more in depth you get, but the web learning tools did a
great job in breaking the process down so that anyone can learn the basics. I
noticed in my reading that only a select few web browsers support CSS, and specifically
Chrome was not listed as one of them. I was curious as to why this is the case?
Do the others browsers opt out or run something different? Is there no
standard HTML style sheet? Even if they don't support CSS, do the web pages still appear how they were intended by the creator?
