Day 8: Advanced CSS

More CSS

I built the About page of my website yesterday. And will start on the Home page of the site today.

I started by copying the classes I created in the last couple of videos into my index.html file. And already the page is looking pretty good.

Ain't CSS grand?

Saying that though - I am finding it tricky to keep up to speed with all the classes I have added to my document. I hope I'll slowly understand how to create generic classes first and then focus in on more specific bits of styling further down my stylesheet.

Admittedly it was a shorter day of practice today - but that's OK! Here's a screen grab....

Other stuff I learned

• When centering stuff using margin, you can set the horizontal alignment to auto.

  • Buttons are not block-level elements (and so cant have an auto margin). So more code is needed.
