Internal CSS
defined in the <head> section of an HTML page, within a <style> element</style>
used on classes, ids

<style>
#main-header {
background-color: lightblue; }

background-color: purple; }
<h1 id="main-header">

Every box is composed of
Content: The content of the box is where text and images appear
* Padding: Clears an area around the content. The padding is transparent
* Border: A border that goes around the padding and content
* Margin: Clears an area outside the border. The margin is transparent
CSS box sizing
Say we have two div containers
if we do
.div1,.div2{box-sizing: border-box;} in styleing
they become same size
Positioning
static. HTML elements are positioned static by default. it is always positioned according to the normal flow of the page.
- relative. An element with “position: relative” is positioned relative to its normal position
fixed. An element with position: fixed; is positioned relative to the viewport, which means it always stays in the same place even if the page is scrolled
absolute. The absolutely positioned element is positioned relative to its nearest ancestor that is not static. If a positioned ancestor doesn’t exist, it uses the document body
float
places element on right or left side of container allowing text to wrap around
Responsive web page development
Using <meta></meta> viewport element
o Using Media Query technique
o Set width property to a percentage
o Using max-width and min-width
@media (max-width: 600px) {
article{ width:100%; }
body {background-color: blue; }
}
Flexbox (RWD)
items in a container
set display : flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
actual div elemtns
flex: 300px;
javascript function
tag
getting input
<div></div>
<script>
let name = window.prompt("Please enter your name:");
document.getElementById("output").innerHTML = "Hello " + name;
</script>
declaring variables
let a, b, c; // to store string
const // cannot be changed
var// to store numbers
backticks
With backticks, you can embed variables and expressions directly within a string
e.g
let name = “Alex”;
let num = 10;
let message = Hello ${name}! You're number ${num}.;
Conditional statements
if (condition) {
// code block
} else {
// code block
}
Shorthand
let age = 20;
let canDrive = age >= 18 ? “Old enough”:”Too young”;
