CSS

What is CSS? Firstly, CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and it defines how to display HTML elements so it doesn't look so plain. Basically, it brightens up a HTML file.In my IS lesson, I learnt how to use CSS. The format for CSS is like this: {colour:....;font-size:...px} of course, CSS is not only used to change the font colour and the font size, but this is just an example. CSS can also change background style, where the font is aligned, the font style, and so on.

HTML

What is HTML? My most recent IS blog, I learnt about HTML.HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language and is used to create websites. When one creates websites, one does not need Dream weaver, or any other software. All one needs is notepad, which comes free on every windows computer, which means that for one to create websites, all one has to do is learn how to use HTML. In my IS lesson, I learnt how to use the different tags, like the title tag which names the title of the website, the body tag, which shows the contents of the website, and so on.
