The Missing Manual: Style Sheets
Overview Style sheets are separate documents that are filled with formatting rules. The browser reads these rules and uses them to format the Web page. For example, a style sheet rule might say, "Make all headings bold and fuchsia and draw a box around each one." There's several reasons that one places formatting instructions in a style sheet instead of directly in a Web page. The most obvious one is reuse. For example, thanks to style sheets, one can create a single rule that one can use with every level three heading in every Web page on the Web site. The second reason is that style sheets help to make tidy, manageable HTML.
