Topic 1

CSS naming

When looking at css code and how to identify what you want is important with the css code you always want to make sure that first look at main index in the front of the code this will allow you to identify what your naming and want to be affected after, then comes your decloration which is the affect to the index assigned. The decorlation will start with a propertyand then will be assingned an value which then ends in curly brackets same as the start. This is the naming structure that all css follows and gives the information on what was done and how it was set up.

Topic 2

Id's and Classes

Id's and Class divs are a easy way to make your seperate pages act the same when it comes to parts of your site when dealing with a client that wants their site to be minimalistic these are your best friend. When creating an id or div you need to make sure that this is how you want it, because its going to be spread across all pages with the css code. You can create a id or div for many parts of the site from the text, to the html sandwich, you can go and make divs for headers, and footers, you can make boxes that hold your content into a div. Divs can also be a way to contain something a certain way also, like creating a box for content that would be found in the header or footer also.

Topic 3

Values

So to make values easy for everyone to understand, they are what creates the affect you have three categories word values, number values, and color values. Color values is pretty self explainable after you say want to change the color of the text because you have a black background and you want white text you would simply enter your color: then enter your hex code in this case it was white so #FFFFFF is our hex code all together the code look like color : #FFFFFF; , word values allow you to change the size of the fonts which is also a number value also. But word value also allows you to change the weight of text if you want to make text more bold or skinner.
