CSS (cascading style sheets)

summary

    This subchapter looks at CSS (cascading style sheets).

    Cascading style sheets are used to set the look of a web page.

    Even though CSS is not generally considered to be an actual programming language, there are two good reasons to include a discussion of CSS in a general computer programming text book.

    (1) CSS has a structure similar to most mainstream programming languages, making it a good introduction to some of the mechanics of writing source code.

    (2) A great deal of modern software must work on the internet (and more specifically the world wide web) and eventually the software has to produce working CSS.

    Cascading style sheets are used to set the look of a web page.

free music player coding example

    Coding example: I am making heavily documented and explained open source code for a method to play music for free — almost any song, no subscription fees, no download costs, no advertisements, all completely legal. This is done by building a front-end to YouTube (which checks the copyright permissions for you).

    View music player in action: www.musicinpublic.com/.

    Create your own copy from the original source code/ (presented for learning programming).
