In this tutorial you will learn how to code an inline style for an HTML tag. You would use this type of style when you want to control a special area of your webpage differently from the way you have set the Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for the rest of the webpage. Let's look at an example.
As you can see, you will use the usual opening and closing HTML tags with one exception which is the addition of the inline style within the HTML tag.
The code you add to create an inline style begins with the style attribute which is followed by an equal sign. On the right of the equal sign is one or more property:value pairs (style definition) between quotation marks. If you have more than one style definition, you separate each with a semicolon. Also notice the values that have spaces such as 'comic sans MS' are placed between single quotation marks. ♦♦If you are interested in creating a website with HTML, you might be interested in reading the HTML Basics Series which will teach you the basics of HTML as you build a simple three-page website and create a webpage template that you can use to add more pages to this site. ♦♦You might also want to try the Flash Basics Series that will walk you through the process of building a website with MacromediaR FlashR.
