  2. HTML • Style Sheets • Style Properties • Layout Properties • Selector Types • Inserting Style to a Page • Inheritance and Cascading • Java Script Agenda

  3. What is HTML? • A Markup Language for representing documents • text (data) • structure • appearance • functionality • Designed for writing Web pages • Traditionally rendered by Web browsers • Nowadays, also by other applications (for example: AppStore app in iOS)

  4. Capabilities of HTML • Content presentation • Structures, e.g., paragraphs, lists, tables, etc. • Decorations, e.g., fonts, images, etc. • Declaration of meta information • e.g., the page title, language, etc. • Linkage to other pages • i.e., attaching links to components • Management of user input • e.g., searching, making reservations, ordering products • Directions for browsers • e.g., refresh, redirect, caching control, etc.

  5. HTML Page Structure HTML Page Structure <html> <head> <title>An HTML Page</title> </head> <body> <h1 id="hdr1">Hello World Wide Web!</h1> </body> </html> Filename ends with.htmor.html

  6. HTML Version History • HTML 1.0 (first draft) – 1992 • HTML 2.0 (proposed standard) – September 1995 From this point on - W3C recommendations • HTML 3.2– January 1997 • added tables, applets, ... • HTML 4.0– December 1997 • improved tables, forms, ...

  7. HTML Version History - cont’d • HTML 4.01 – December 1999 • Slightly different from 4.0 • XHTML 1.0– January 2000 • Reformulation of HTML 4.01 as an XML application • Stricter and cleaner syntax, formatting moved to CSS • XHTML 1.1– May 2001 • “Modularization of XHTML”

  8. (X)HTML Support in Real Life • Non-standard / mixed HTML • Most of the time, will display more-or-less as expected, on most browsers, but its appearance may vary between browser types and between browser versions • Even when using completely valid and standard HTML, always check your pages on more than one browser type • At least IE & some Mozilla

  9. Basic HTML Syntax • (X)HTML contains text, separated bytags • Tags come in pairs: openingand closingtag • Tags can haveattributes, which havevalues <html> <head><title>An HTML Page</title></head> <body> <h1id="hdr1">Hello World Wide Web!</h1></body> </html>

  10. Basic HTML Syntax – con’t Basic HTML Syntax – con’t • An HTML page is surrounded by the html tag • 2 Basic parts: • head: general information about the document (e.g., title – shown on the browser bar) • body: the content of the document Actually a tree structure is created <html> <head><title>An HTML Page</title></head> <body> <h1id="hdr1">Hello World Wide Web!</h1> </body> </html>

  11. XHTML Stricter Syntax • Element and attr. names must be in lower case • HTML allows any case combination, e.g., <Body></BODY>, which conveniently helped distinguish tags from the body text • All tags must have corresponding closing tags • Use <br/> as a shorthand for <br></br> • Elements should be properly nested • e.g.,<b>hello <em>world</b></em>is illegal! • Attribute values must be quoted • e.g., <td rowspan="3"> and not <td rowspan=3>

  12. Document Type Definitions • It is good to specify which XHTML standard you are using • Put a document type definition (DTD) at the first line of your file (before the html tag) • For an example, see the next slide

  13. Document Type Definitions – con’t • XHTML - strict <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> • XHTML - transitional (loose) Transition htmlxhtml: allows some legacy formatting outside CSS <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> • XHTML - frameset (for using frames) <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd">

  14. Basic Structures <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title> Hello World Example </title> </head> <body> Hello World </body> </html>

  15. Links <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title> Hello World Example </title> </head> <body> <a href=“anotherExample.html”>Hello World</a> </body> </html>

  17. HTML • Style Sheets • Style Properties • Layout Properties • Selector Types • Inserting Style to a Page • Inheritance and Cascading • Java Script Agenda

  18. What are Style Sheets • A style sheetis a mechanism that allows to specify how HTML (/XHTML/XML) pages should look • The style is specified by style rules • The style rules appear either in the document or in external files, called style sheets

  19. Style Sheets • Usually, a file that ends with .css • For example: • i.a.cnn.net/cnn/.element/ssi/css/1.1/main.css(CNN) • http://www.mta.ac.il//_layouts/1037/styles/core.cs (MTA) • To attach a style sheet to an HTML file, add <link rel="stylesheet"type="text/css"href="css-file"/> You can link to more than one css file to the head

  20. Style Sheets • A file that is used for storing information about the way elements of HTML (or XML) should appear on the browser • A style sheet increases the separation between content and presentation • Easier to generate large sites in which all the pages have the same style • It allows changing the look of many pages by changing a single file • May reduce network traffic

  21. Without a style sheet (i.e., with the defaultstyle definitions)

  22. Simple Example – without css div defines a division/section in a document.Using div you group elements. <html> <head><title>A Joke</title></head> <body> <div><imgsrc="tomato.gif"alt="joke"/></div> <h1>A joke</h1> <p>A mama tomato, a papa tomato and a baby tomato are walking down the street. The baby tomato keeps falling behind so the papa tomato goes back, steps on the baby tomato and says, ketchup ("Catch-up!"). </p> </body> </html>

  23. Style File: joke.css Simple Example body { background-image:url("bg.gif"); } h1 { background-color: green; color:rgb(250, 200, 250); /* pink */ font-family:cursive; } p { background-color: yellow; color: purple; font-size:200%;}

  24. Simple Example - with css <html> <head><title>A Joke</title> <linkrel="stylesheet"type="text/css"href="joke.css"/> </head> <body> <div><imgsrc="tomato.gif"alt="joke"></div> <h1>A joke</h1> <p>A mama tomato, a papa tomato and a baby tomato are walking down the street. The baby tomato keeps falling behind so the papa tomato goes back, steps on the baby tomato and says, ketchup ("Catch-up!"). </p></body> </html>

  25. Background: Style in Legacy HTML • In traditional HTML, every HTML tag which supported changing its font/color/etc…, supported this using a different syntax • Examples: <body background=“bg.jpg” vlink =“green”> <center>Hello</center> <font size="3" color="red">Hey!</font> <strike>line-through</strike> <table border=“1px”>

  26. Simple Example – without css Simple Example – without css • Separates content from style • Often require two kinds of skills; moreover, one is likely to change independently from the other • Keeps HTML pages human-readable • Reduces download time (how?) • Allows to easily maintain a consistent appearance over a whole Web site (why?) • A more flexible, unified way to specify style properties for different HTML elements (tables, paragraphs, etc…)

  27. The Transition to Style Sheets • Style Sheets provide new ways to accomplish tasks which were already possible • … but recall the advantages from the previous slide • Once style sheets were introduced, most of the legacy features with equivalent functionality were deprecated in HTML 4.01 and in Transitional XHTML and were removed in Strict XHTML

  28. Style Rules • A rule has the following form selector {declaration block} • The selector determines when the rule is applied • For example, the following rule applies to text that is inside a <p> tag p{color: green;font-size:1.5em;font-style:italic} em is the current font-size of the element

  29. Properties that CSS Controls • Style properties • Layout properties • There are many properties and many possible values • We will not cover all of them here • Look in the Web !!!

  30. HTML • Style Sheets • Style Properties • Layout Properties • Selector Types • Inserting Style to a Page • Inheritance and Cascading • Java Script Agenda

  31. Our Examples • We use the following HTML example: This is<span>our example </span>for css. • The <span> tag is used to group inline elements for formatting with styles • Extremely useful tag...

  32. Font Properties • Font properties: family, size, weight, style, variant, etc. span { font-family: courier; font-size:130%; font-style:italic; font-weight:bold}

  33. Text Properties • Text properties: color, transform, decoration, … span { color:#00cc00; text-decoration:line-through; text-transform:uppercase}

  34. Background Properties • Background properties: background-color, background-image, … span {background-color:#00ff00} span {background-image:url('bg.gif');}

  36. HTML • Style Sheets • Style Properties • Layout Properties • Selector Types • Inserting Style to a Page • Inheritance and Cascading • Java Script Agenda

  37. Page Layout • Each HTML element defines a layer(rectangular box) that is placed in some location on the page • Layers are nestedwith correspondence to the nesting of their elements

  38. Inline vs. Block Elements • There are two type of elements: • Block elements: p, ol, table, div, h1, etc. • Inline elements: b, i, a, span, cite, etc. • Layers of block elements are separated from their adjacent elements (i.e., a new line before and after), while inline elements are not • You can turn a block into an inline and vice-versa (highly useful for img elements, among others), using the display property, e.g., h1 { display: inline }

  39. Positioning Elements • Using CSS, you can define the position of an element inside its parent layer • For that, use the properties position, left, right, top and bottom span { position:relative; left:1cm; top: 1cm; color:#00cc00;} distance from left distance from top

  40. Position Types • But 1cm left to what?? • For that, we have the position property • Four position types are supported: • static: the default position • relative: relative to the static position • absolute: relative to the parent layer coordinates • fixed: relative to the window coordinates (remains at the same position regardless of scrolling)

  41. Position Examples Positions Examples span { position:absolute; left:1cm; top: 1cm; color:#00cc00;} span { position:fixed; left:1cm; top: 1cm; color:#00cc00;}

  42. Positions Examples – con’t span { position:static; left:1cm; top: 1cm; color:#00cc00;} This is the default position type

  43. margin Padding More Layout Properties • Layer properties • margin-top (-bottom, -left, -right) • padding-top (-bottom, -left, -right) • border-width (-color, -style, … ) • Text Layout • direction, word-spacing, white-space, letter-spacing, text-align, text-indent, … A mama tomato, a papa tomato and a baby tomato are walking down the street. A mama tomato, a papa tomato and a baby tomato are walking down the street.

  44. Length Units • CSS has several types of length units: • em, ex: height of current fonts • ex is the height of “x”, em is the distance between bottoms of two subsequent lines • px, in, cm, mm, pt, pc: international units • %: ratio of parent’s respective dimension • A page should remain a proper layout when fonts and/or windows are resized (usually by the user) • Hence, do not assume anything about default sizes

  46. HTML • Style Sheets • Style Properties • Layout Properties • Selector Types • Inserting Style to a Page • Inheritance and Cascading • Java Script Agenda

  47. Several Kinds of Selectors • Type Selectors • Class Selectors • ID Selectors • Attribute Selectors • Universal Selector • Child Selectors • Adjacent-Sibling Selectors • Descendant Selectors • Pseudo-Class Selectors • Pseudo-Element Selectors

  48. Type Selector • A type selector is the name of an element type • A type selector matches every instance of the element type li {color: red;font-size:16px} Matches: <ol> <li> An item </li> <liclass="reditem"> Another item </li> </ol>

  49. Universal Selector • The universal selector matches every element • The following rule means that all the text will have a size of 40px * {font-size: 40px }

  50. Attribute Selector • p[title] • matches p when its title attribute is set to any value • p[title=intro] or p[title="intro"](the quotes are optional) • matches p when its title attribute is set to “intro” • p[class~=green] • matches p when the class attribute value includes the word “green”
