There are three ways to link CSS to an HTML document:
Inline CSS:
This is done by putting style attributes inside the HTML elements. An inline CSS is used to apply different and unique styles to every HTML element. Inline CSS has an HTML element’s style attribute.
For example, add a header element with red text and change the <p> paragraph element’s text colour to blue, enter the following commands:
<h1 style=”color:red;”>A Red Heading</h1>
<p style=”color:blue;”>A Blue Paragraph </p>
Internal CSS:
An internal CSS is used to define the style of a single HTML web page. It defines the style of the web page’s <head> section and also the <style> element. Consider a situation where you want to change the text colour of every <h1> element on a page to red, and the text colour of every paragraph and <p> element to red. The background colour of this image should be “yellow”
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
body {background-colour: yellow;}
h1 {colour: red;}
p {colour: blue;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
External CSS:
External CSS is generally used to define styles for multiple HTML pages. To use an external CSS, you must add a link for it to every HTML page’s <head> section.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”styles.css”>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a heading</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>
