HTML and CSS Cheat Sheet and Must Knows Flashcards
- Help memorize all the CSS properties, HTML tags attributes and attribute values - Give practical examples of some different front-end things. Eg: How do you shape a div as a circle?
List the “original” top most common HTML Tags that came before HTML 5
GOAL: Try to name 20 different tags
INFO 1: There are 94 tags listed here in total that were available in HTML4.
INFO 2: Before 2014 HTML5 did not exist. Therefore on sites which are older, you may have stricter requirement on which HTML elements you can use. It is best to know which elements are valid in HTML4.
< !-- comment -- > < !doctype > < a > < abbr > < acronym> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < address > < applet> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < area > < b > < base > < basefont> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < bdo > < big>(obsolete in HTML5 ) < blockquote > < body > < br > < button > < caption > < center> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < cite > < code > < col > < colgroup > < dd > < del > < dfn > < dir> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < div > < dl > < dt > < em > < fieldset > < font> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < form > < frame> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < frameset> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < h1 > < h2 > < h3 > < h4 > < h5 > < h6 > < head > < hr > < html > < i > < iframe > < img > < input > < ins > < isindex> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < kbd > < label > < legend > < li > < link > < map > < menu > < meta > < noframes> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < noscript > < object > < ol > < optgroup > < option > < p > < param > < pre > < q > < s > < samp > < script > < select > < small > < span > < strike> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < strong > < style > < sub > < sup > < table > < tbody < td > < textarea > < tfoot > < th > < thead > < title > < tr > < tt> (obsolete in HTML5 ) < u > < ul > < var >
List the tags of ONLY HTML 5 …
HINT: There are 23 new tags which are available in HTML5
Why do we want to use these semantic markups?
< article > Represents an independent piece of content of a document, such as a blog entry or newspaper article
< aside > Represents a piece of content that is only slightly related to the rest of the page.
< audio > Defines an audio file.
< canvas > This is used for rendering dynamic bitmap graphics on the fly, such as graphs or games.
< command > Represents a command the user can invoke.
< datalist > Together with the a new list attribute for input can be used to make comboboxes
< details > Represents additional information or controls which the user can obtain on demand
< embed > Defines external interactive content or plugin.
< figure > Represents a piece of self-contained flow content, typically referenced as a single unit from the main flow of the document.
< footer > Represents a footer for a section and can contain information about the author, copyright information, et cetera.
< header > Represents a group of introductory or navigational aids.
< hgroup > Represents the header of a section.
< keygen > Represents control for key pair generation.
< mark > Represents a run of text in one document marked or highlighted for reference purposes, due to its relevance in another context.
< meter > Represents a measurement, such as disk usage.
< nav > Represents a section of the document intended for navigation.
< output > Represents some type of output, such as from a calculation done through scripting.
< progress > Represents a completion of a task, such as downloading or when performing a series of expensive operations.
< ruby > Together with and allow for marking up ruby annotations.
< section > Represents a generic document or application section
< time > Represents a date and/or time.
< video > Defines a video file.
< wbr > Represents a line break opportunity.
HTML5 semantic tags define the purpose of the element. By using semantic markup, you help the browser understand the meaning of the content instead of just displaying it. By providing this extra level of clarity, HTML5 semantic elements also help search engines to read the page and find the required information faster.

What is the difference between a CSS Rule, CSS Property, and CSS Selector?
The CSS Rule is the Selector along with which Properties it modifies, together.
h2 {
color: blue;
}
h2 is known as the selector.
color is known as the property.
blue is known as a property value.
A “rule” is the terminology for this block of code.
What are the differences between padding, border, and margin?
padding is the inner-most whitespace next to HTML element
border is for styling which is applied to the padding (up to the edges of the
padding) (can have styling applied to it)
margin is blank white space added around the element, and is just used for such
padding and margins cannot be styled. only border can be styled.
How do you add margin or padding for all 4 edges of an element at once?
margin: 10px 3px 30px 5px;
order goes top right bottom left
clockwise.
What is a float?
Followup: How do you debug float issues?
float is the “old school” way that HTML pages were laid out using CSS, long before Bootstrap or modern Javascript frameworks. It is still used frequently.
img {
float: right;
}
none The element does not float, (will be displayed just where it occurs in the text). This is default
left The element floats to the left of its container
right The element floats the right of its container
If a floating element is taller than the containing element, it will overflow outside its container. It is possible to fix this with the “clearfix hack”:
.clearfix::after { content: ""; clear: both; display: table; }
Explain the CSS “background” property keyword explanation and common properties you might want to modify to change things about the background.
Hint: There are 10 such CSS properties related to background
background is a very common css property to modify, since it controls what should appear behind the HTML element.
background background-attachment background-blend-mode background-clip background-color background-image background-origin background-position background-repeat background-size
memorize these and look up each if you do not know now. Then they can be applied when possible.
Explain about the !important CSS property modifier
This is a keyword which can be applied to a CSS property to make sure that it is applied to the outermost element.
This can help when it is confusing as to why an element which not take some CSS (usually due to prior CSS before it taking precedence)
USE SPARINGLY …
Explain about the css “margin” keyword and common CSS properties you might use to modify margins.
margin-top
margin-right
margin-bottom
margin-left
All the margin properties can have the following values:
auto - the browser calculates the margin
length - specifies a margin in px, pt, cm, etc.
% - specifies a margin in % of the width of the containing element
inherit - specifies that the margin should be inherited from the parent element
Explain about the css “border” keyword and common CSS properties you might use to modify borders
p. dotted {border-style: dotted;}
p. dashed {border-style: dashed;}
p. solid {border-style: solid;}
p. double {border-style: double;}
p. groove {border-style: groove;}
p. ridge {border-style: ridge;}
p. inset {border-style: inset;}
p. outset {border-style: outset;}
p. none {border-style: none;}
p. hidden {border-style: hidden;}
p. mix {border-style: dotted dashed solid double;}
Borders are used to add decoration or styling.
Padding and Margins are NOT used for styling.
Order goes: Padding, Border, Margin
—————>
Common border properties:
border-width
border-style
border-color
What are the eight possible border-style properties in CSS?
border-style: solid border-style: double border-style: groove border-style: outset border-style: dotted border-style: dashed border-style: inset border-style: ridge
Note: We don’t usually use any of these because they are ugly. Use Bootstrap instead or something else for styling.
This is still okay for styling basic websites.
What are the four possible border-width properties in CSS? What about other ways to set the border-width of an element?
border-width: thin; border-width: medium; border-width: thick; border-width: %; border-width: 20px;
Remember: padding -> border -> margins
Border can have styling applied to it, while padding and margins (usually) do not, since they are transparent.
Explain all about the font CSS properties. Name the 5 css font properties and how to apply them in CSS code.
The font property is a shorthand property for:
font-style font-variant font-weight font-size/line-height font-family
font: font-style font-variant font-weight font-size/line-height font-family
What does the line-height CSS property do?
The line-height CSS property increases the space between each line of text. You can use 1 by default which will fit it according to the font size.
Explain class and id using CSS and HTML code examples.
/* id */ #header { width: 100%; height: 80px; background: blue }
/* class "/ #container { width: 1080px; margin: 0 auto; background: #eee }
Explain about the text-align property in CSS
div.a {
text-align: center;
}
div.b {
text-align: left;
}
div.c {
text-align: right;
}
div.c {
text-align: justify;
}
What is a descendant selector in CSS?
div h2 { color: blue; }
div is the parent selector, h2 is the child selector. This relationship is sometimes known as “descendant selector”
Another thing you might see is:
< style > li > div { color:white; background: green; } ul > li { color: green; } < /style >
The ‘>’ symbol can be used to specify a specific child HTML element under a parent one.
What does auto mean when used as a value for a CSS property?
auto means to let CSS take control of the value for the CSS property. It is a common setting for the following CSS properties:
CSS properties you might use ‘auto’ for:
Code example:
Explain about the HTML < span > < /span > tag and where it’s commonly used.
span tag
What are the states a link can take on a HTML webpage? (This is referring to what happens when the link element changes as you click/interact with them)
HINT: There are 5 such states
Links on a webpage change to the following states (in order):
link visited hover focus active
What does the word “cascade” mean in relation to CSS?
The word “cascade” is the first word of CSS because of how different CSS files can cascade together to give the overall style for the website.
What does “mobile first” mean in relation to web design?
This refers to the process of initially creating a website for mobile environment first (phone), THEN later on designing the desktop version.
This is useful because the mobile version often has less functionality and only the necessary functionality. Leading to better results long term.
Bootstrap 4 is an example of one UI framework which promotes the ‘mobile first’ way of thinking.
What is a block style element? What about an inline element?
block vs inline elements
List some useful metadeta you might want to store in the head section of an HTML document.

< link rel=”icon” href=”coding_icon.ico” >
< link rel=”stylesheet” href=”example_styles.css”>
< script type=”text/javascript” src=”basic_script.js”>
< /head >
What are the units of measurement allowed in CSS?
% cm em ex in mm pc pt px
What is a clearfix? When do we usually need to use a clearfix?
If an element is taller than the element containing it, and it is floated, it will overflow outside of its container.
We use the “clearfix” hack to fix the problem:
.clearfix {
overflow: auto;
}
What does the overflow CSS property do?
The overflow property specifies what should happen if content overflows an element’s box.
It can take on the following values:
visible hidden scroll auto initial inherit
Eg:)
#someid { overflow: scroll; }
Explain all about the “form” HTML element.
Followup: How do you cause Javascript functions to occur based on the submission of a form? What happens after the submit?
Forms
Explain about the opacity CSS property:
Opacity refers to how translucent (see-through) the element should be:
< head > < style > .example { -moz-opacity: 0.5; } < /style > < /head > < body > < a class="example" >This text has -moz-opacity: 0.5< /a > < /body >
We use the -moz-opacity (for mozilla browsers) or opacity property in CSS3+
Explain about the grid CSS properties:
grid-column-gap
grid-row-gap
grid-gap
.item1 {
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
Explain about the flex CSS properties:
.flex-container {
display: flex;
}
The flex container properties are:
flex-direction: row | column
flex-wrap: wrap | nowrap | wrapreverse
flex-flow:
flex-basis:
justify-content: flex-start | flex-end | center
align-items: flex-start | flex-end | center
align-content: flex-start | flex-end | center
Explain word-break vs word-spacing vs word-wrap in CSS
word-break
word-spacing
word-wrap
Explain about the transition CSS property:
transition transition-delay transition-duration transition-property transition-timing-function
Example: change div’s width
div { width: 100px; height: 100px; background: red; transition: width 2s; }
div:hover {
width: 300px;
}
When to use flexbox and when to use grid?
Try to get 5 CSS properties for both flex and grid.
Flexbox is one-dimensional
Grid is two-dimensional
“Flexbox lays out items along either the horizontal or the vertical axis, so you have to decide whether you want a row-based or a column-based layout. A flex layout can also wrap in multiple rows or columns and flexbox treats each row or column as a separate entity, based on its content and the available space.”
“On the other hand, CSS Grid lets you work along two axes: horizontally and vertically. Grid allows you to create two-dimensional layouts where you can precisely place grid items into cells defined by rows and columns”
“Grid is is usually better for full-page layouts and flexbox is usually better for smaller components. However, this is not always the case.”
An HTML element becomes a grid container when its display property is set to grid or inline-grid:
.grid-container {
display: grid;
}
You adjust grid gaps using following CSS properties:
grid-column-gap
grid-row-gap
grid-gap
Place a grid item at row line 1, and let it end on row line 3:
.item1{
grid-row-start:1;
grid-row-end:3;
}
The flex property is a shorthand property for:
flex-grow
flex-shrink
flex-basis
Flex-wrap is another important CSS property:
flex-wrap:wrap;
In Bootstrap, content must be placed within…
HINT: Choose 1 – Columns, Rows, or Container?
columns
Bootstrap has a column based layout which means it fits responsively for phones.
Which of the following defines a relative measurement for the height of a font in em spaces?
A - %
B - cm
C - em
D - ex
Answer : C
em − A relative measurement for the height of a font in em spaces. Because an em unit is equivalent to the size of a given font, if you assign a font to 12pt, each “em” unit would be 12pt; thus, 2em would be 24pt
Which of the following CSS font property is used to create a small-caps effect?
