CSS?? Need help on my web page project....?

I have a web page project thing and it says that I need to use CSS to set the display for at least 2 HTML elements. I know CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets but what the heck does this mean? What do I have to do? I've tried searching it on the web but nothing's helping me understand what it means. Please explain and/or give me an example?! Thanks so much!!

  1. You get 3 types of CSS; 1. inline styles, e.g. <p style="font-weight:600">BOLD</p> 2. document level, e.g. <head> <style type="text/css"> .bold { font-weight: 600; } </style> </head> <body> <p class="bold">BOLD</p> </body> 3. external css file. This is like document level as far as the <body><p class="bold">BOLD</p></body> goes but the bit in the head is in a separate file and is linked by adding the following to the <head></head>; <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css" /> As far as your assignment goes, just add styling (using any of the methods above to 2 of your elements in the <body> section
  2. CSS is a more browser friendly way of designing web pages and websites. It involves using code to format how the page looks. Everything from simply the text to the formatting to the size of particular elements. CSS is not an easy thing to understand for everyone. Below I've included one highly reputable source for learning all about CSS. Hope it helps!
  3. CSS is a way to style your webpage. You can put in an external style sheet or in the header of your page. <---example---> body {background-color: yellow} h1 {background-color: #00ff00} h2 {background-color: transparent} p {background-color: rgb(250,0,255)}
  4. <b style="color:red;">This text is bold and red</b> <i style="border:1px solid green">This text is italic and has a green border</i>
