When a style sheet is read, the browser will format the HTML document according to it.

How to insert a style sheet

There are three ways to insert a style sheet:

External style sheet
Internal style sheet
Inline style

##External style sheet

#An external style sheet is ideal when styles need to be applied to many pages. With external style sheets, you can change the look of your entire site by changing one file. Each page uses the

External style sheets can be edited in any text editor. The file cannot contain any html tags. Style sheets should be saved with a .css extension. Here is an example of a style sheet file:
