Introduction:

This tutorial does not cover all aspects of css, it is rather a guide that will give a basic understanding of external style sheets and how to create or modify columns inside them

The tutorial goes through the simple things like text effects and borders then moves on to divs and creating and editing columns. It ends with some ideas for creating a web site page and how to incorporate backgrounds for some neat effects.

This is meant for beginners but it is assumed that you know the basics of html and that you can write or edit the code. You will find examples of both html and portions of the external style sheets used.

Tools:

First you will need a way to edit both html and css. This tutorial uses Top Style Lite though any program that lets you edit the code will work fine. Here is a link to Top Style, a css editor by Bradsoft.
