To accurately transfer a technical manuscript containing CSS Source Code to the e-book format acceptable for Kindle readers often takes extraordinary editing measures. As a long time publisher Learning Curve strives to provide the best experience for our Kindle readers given limitations of the medium. For example, source code is traditionally difficult to implement correctly for Kindle format. Although Learning Curve books -- originally designed as a desk reference -- are best consumed in the paperback format. Nonetheless, we've gone to a great extent to make sure that the content of this technical book is readable on as many Amazon Kindle, Apple and Android-based devices as possible in its most acceptable format.

CSS Properties and Values

CSS has unique properties.

You can verify this with a simple JavaScript code snipplet as follows:

Source Code 0

var element = document.createElement("div");
var count = 0;
for (index in element.style) p++;
console.log(p); // outputs 415 as of June 1st, 2018.

There may be more or less in the future as new features are being added to the specification and old ones deprecate.

A large number of CSS properties that are rarely in use ( or still don't have full browser support across all major browsers ) were skipped from the contents of this book. They would only create unneeded clutter.

Instead, in this book we focused only on CSS properties that are in common use by web designers and developers today. A great deal of effort went into creation of CSS Grid and Flex diagrams in particular.

Placement

CSS code can be saved in a separate, external file and included as follows:

Source Code 1

< html >
< head >
< title >Welcome to my website.</</span> title >
< link rel = "stylesheet" type = "text/css" href = " style.css " />
</</span> head >
< body >CSS style instructions stored in "style.css" will be applied to this page.</</span> body >
</</span> html >

Or you can type it directly into your HTML document between:

here tags.

Simple Assignments

To assign a value to a property of an HTML element whose id is "box", you would write something like this:

Source Code 2

#box { property: value; }

Depending on the property, the value can be a measure of space specified in pixels , pt , em or fr units, a color ... in named red , blue , black , etc..., hexadecimal #0F0 or #00FF00 ... or rgb ( r , g , b ) formats.

Other times the value is unique to a specific property name that cannot be used with any other property. For example, the CSS transform property can take a value called rotate that takes an angle in degrees -- here, CSS requires that you append "deg" to the numeric degree value:

Source Code 3

#box { transform: rotate(45deg); } /* rotate this element by 45 degrees in clock-wise direction */

CSS Comments

CSS only supports "block comment" syntax for creating in-code comments. By surrounding a block of text or CSS code with /* comment */ symbols.

Source Code 4

color: #FFFFFF; /* Set font color to white using Hexadecimal value */

Source Code 5

color: #FFF; /* Set font color to white using short Hexadecimal value */

Source Code 6

color: white; /* Set font color to white using named value */

Source Code 7

color: rgb(255,255,255); /* Set font color to white using an RGB value */

Source Code 8

color: var(--white-color); /* Set font color to white using a CSS variable */

You can also comment out entire sections of CSS code to temporarily disable them for future use:

Source Code 9

/*

content: "hello";
border: 1px solid gray;
color: #FFFFFF; */

CSS does not support inline syntax // inline comments are not allowed or rather... have no effect on the browser's CSS interpreter. Other than they might confuse it a bit!

Assignment Patterns

You can use property: value pair combination to set background images, colors and other basic properties of HTML elements.

You could alternatively use property: value value value to assign multiple values to a single property, to avoid redundant declarations. These are called shorthands . They usually separate multiple property values by space.

But CSS has undergone considerable upgrades over the years. Before we begin exploring the visual diagrams describing each CSS property it is imperative to understand how CSS interprets property and value patterns.

The majority of properties use these patterns:

Source Code 10

property: value; /* The most common pattern */

Source Code 11

property: value, value, value; /* separated by comma */

Source Code 12

property: value value value; /* separated by space*/

Properties that refer to a size of something can also be calculated using calc keyword:

Source Code 13

property: calc(value[px]); /* calculated */
