5. CSS Measurements If your default or base font size is 16 pixels Then h1{font-size: 1.5em;} = 24 (1.5 X 16 =24) body {font-size: 100%;} h1 {font-szie: 150%;} /*150 of 16 = 24*/

6. CSS Properties Line height p {line-height: 2;} p {line-height: 2em;} p {line-height: 200%} Text Color h1{color: gray;} h1{color:#666666} h1{color:#666;} h1{color: fuchsia;} (17 standard color names defined in CSS2.1) Indents (indents 1 st line of paragraph) p {text-indent: 2em;} p {text-indent: 25%} p {text-indent: -35px;} alignment p {text-align: left;} p {text-align: right;} p {text-align: center;} p {text-align: justify;}

7.

9. The Box Model Block and inline elements are seen as being contained in rectangular boxes

10. CSS Padding, Borders, Margins Width & height of element Padding Border Margin

11. CSS box elements Width & height p {width: 400px; height: 100px; background: #C2F670;} overflow Less common to specify height |visible|hidden|scroll| p{ height: 15px; width: 15px; overflow: scroll;} Padding | top | right | bottom | left | Blockquote { padding-top: 1em; padding-right: 3em; padding-bottom: 1em; padding-left: 3em; } Shortcut blockquote{ padding: 1em 3em 1em 3em; } TRBL {padding: top right/left bottom;} {padding: 1em 3em 1em;} {padding: top/bottom right/left;} {padding: 1em 3em;} {padding: 15px;}

12. CSS box elements Border-style | top | right | bottom | left | |none | dotted | dashed | solid | double | | groove | ridge | inset | outset | h1 { border-bottom-style: solid; width: 300px;} Border-width |value | thin | medium | thick | h1{ border-bottom-width: 12px; border-style: solid; width: 300px:} Border-color| top | right | bottom | left | | value | h1 { border-color: aqua; border-bottom-style: solid; border-width: 6px; width: 300px;} shortcut |style | width | color | h1{ border-bottom: 1px solid; #663 }
