We Can Use CSS in HTML Pages in 3 ways: -
● Inline css
E.g
● Internal CSS
E.g
<p style=”color:red”>I am a inline CSS Style Paragaraph Tag</p>
<html>
<head>
<style> p { color:red; } </style>

</head>
<body>
<p> My Color Changed By Internal CSS</p>
</body>
</html>

● External CSS
<html>
<head>
<link rel=”stylesheet”
href=”style.css”>

</head>
<body>
<p>My Style Changed By External
CSS style.css</p>
</body>
</html>
style.css
-----------------------------------------------------
p{color:red;}
h1{color:blue;}
As a Developer i Not Prefered To Using Inline
CSS .use minimum inline CSS Try to Use CSS
Externally or Internally Because managing all
element style easy.
You think what you like to edit?
100 time paragraph tag style?
Or
Just 1 change in External CSS

CSS Rules
Now What happened If Multiple Style Comes To Same
Elements ?
● E.g : - in Internal i add
p{ color :red; }
– And in External I add
p{ color:black;}
Then Here is a Some Rules Which we See How It Works And Whom It
Select.

CSS Rules
● Important ( <p style=’color:red!important’>Important</p>)
This always Comes First when we Selecting Element whether any
internal external or inline css added important works first.
● Inline css (we already see inline css above)
This comes in Second Position.
● Now Inline and External Had Some Different Case.
Rule with selector :
1. ID
2. class
3. descendant/element type
4. universal
5. HTML attribute
This Rules Followed By Internal and
External but Internal Always Comes First
Then External

CSS Fonts
● CSS font is Very important part of CSS for Customizing Fonts
in Our Webpage. We Can Customize this fonts using Css.
● Change Font Weight

#p2{ font-family: sans-serif; line-height: 40px; }
#p3{ font-style: italic;font-weight: 600; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p id="p1">I am p1 text with css font property color red and font size 20px </p>
