Experimenting with Layouts

Overview

Artists can color the sky red because they know it’s blue.
—Jules Feiffer

Some of the greatest flexibility you’ll encounter when designing with CSS is the way you can apply color to a page and its elements, use backgrounds to add interest and texture to designs, and make use of an element’s borders to create visual interest.

Of course, the exciting parts about CSS are the properties that let you control specific aspects of design elements, unlike those options in HTML or XHTML presentational markup.

In this chapter, you will learn:

  • How to use color to style elements

  • How to work with background properties

  • How to use border properties to add interest to your visual designs
