style sheets

I found style sheets to be especially useful in writing tutorials, where it is easy to highlight within the <tt> tags computer commands with a different font and color, but with a size consistent with the other text.

HTML is designed to allow your browser to format the appearance of a web page. The default is to put the margins for text at the extremes of the browser window. That default can lead to some very long lines of text that are difficult to read. That happens with some of the text above. This section of text is using the margin parameter in <div>.

I can override the style sheet in <p> also.

This page also has some server side includes:

Here is another server-side include, with text returned from mesograb.cgi:

My favorite way to bundle an image and a caption. Even though I specified a width narrower than the image, the image size controls the width.
