How to Load CSS

1. External CSS

  • This method involves creating a separate file for CSS code and linking that file to the HTML document.

  • Code example:

    Linking an external CSS file to an HTML document
    <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="styles.css" /> </head>

    The styles.css file contains the style code.


2. Internal CSS

  • This method defines the style within the <head> section of the HTML document using the <style> tag. The CSS defined this way will only apply to the specific HTML document.

  • Code example:

    Defining CSS internally in an HTML document
    <head> <style> body { background-color: lightblue; } </style> </head>

3. Inline CSS

  • This method applies styles directly to HTML elements. The defined style will only apply to that specific element.

  • Code example:

    Applying styles directly to an HTML element
    <p style="color:red;">This sentence will be displayed in red.</p>

Which method you choose depends on the project requirements, ease of maintenance, and other factors.
