Inline styling[edit | edit source]

Lets look closely at the inline style code and break it down into pieces.

  1. Space after the p.
  2. Next the word "style"
  3. Followed by an equal sign =.
  4. Then a quotation mark ".
  5. The item to be changed or property. In this case "font-family."
  6. A colon :.
  7. What change you want to make for the property or what value you want the property to now have. In this case change the font to "times new roman."
  8. Add another quotation mark ". You cannot leave out any of the quotation marks. The coding will not process if any of them are missing.

Study the coding again and impress it in your minds. You will be using it over and over again.

<p style="font-family:times new roman">

The number of attributes you can put into a tag is unlimited.

Tip Post it Pin.png Be sure all these symbols and parts of the coding are present. Your code will not execute even if one itty bitty, tinie wheenie little item is missing. There is no forgiveness in this life or the next one to a computer! They do not read minds and only process what they see. Leaving out a colon, a quotation mark, a semi-colon or misspelling a word will cause the computer to give you who knows what. This will probably be the biggest problem you'll face in programming, that is, leaving out some small item and having great deal of trouble trying find it.
