Styles

Introduction

We can use styles in the heading of a document to control the size, color, and font of type; the centering of text; the color of the background, and many other things.

The Styles in This Example

We specify that the h1 heading be shown in a font named Verdana, which is easily readable on a computer screen, in a size of 18 points, which is 1/4 of an inch. The heading will be centered (horizontally) in the browser window.

See text for discussion of other style matters.
