Introduction

Part 1 dealt with the mechanics of constructing web pages using HTML. This unit deals with style. It shows how to add attractive features to the web pages while retaining the simplicity and code economy (fast loading) of html coding and without resort to code editors or authoring software. It is assumed that the student understands and is able to apply the Part 1 material.

The approach is to construct various "building blocks" from which web pages are assembled. These building blocks are listed below.
