CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets

Overview

Style sheets are a very powerful tool for the Web site developer. They give you the chance to be completely consistent with the look and feel of your pages, while giving you much more control over the layout and design than straight HTML ever did. CSS is used to style Web pages. But there is more to it than that. CSS is used to style XHTML and XML markup.
