Style sheets are a very powerful tool for the Web site developer. They give you the chance to be completely consistent with the look and feel of your pages, while giving you much more control over the layout and design than straight HTML ever did.
Invented in 1997, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are just now starting to be widely used among browsers and Web developers are learning to be more comfortable with them.

There are three parts to CSS: the styles, their placement, and the fact that they can cascade.

However, there was no way to ensure that all H4 headlines were blue except by typing in the font tag before and after each one.
