CSS Pocket Reference, 5th Edition

Preface

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) standard for the visual presentation of web pages (although it can be used in other settings as well). After a short introduction to the key concepts of CSS, this pocket reference provides an alphabetical reference to all CSS3 selectors, followed by an alphabetical reference to CSS3 properties.

Conventions Used in This Book

The following typographical conventions are used in this book:

Italic

Used to indicate new terms, URLs, filenames, file extensions, directories, commands and options, and program names. For example, a path in the filesystem will appear as C:\windows\system.

<Italic> inside angle brackets

Shows text that should be replaced with user-supplied values or by values determined by context.

Constant width

Used to show the contents of files, or the output from commands.

There are further conventions relating to value syntax. These are explained at the beginning of Chapter 4.
