=Activity 4-2 Cascading Style Sheets (CSS)= Back to Week 4]

Cascading Style Sheets are an incredibly convenient way to organize the style and layout of your website. Even though many Content Management Systems (CMS) make it tricky to edit your own CSS scripts, the basic layout options that they offer are written in CSS.

CSS allows for global changes to be made to your website in an instant. Before CSS, if you wanted to change your logo, site title, or basic colors and fonts - you would have to visit each page in your site and manually make those changes. With CSS, all you need to do is visit your style.css file, make changes to certain classes and voila - you're done!
