Fonts & CSS
The Baylor Business School site uses a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) for Internet Explorer and Netscape viewers. It is the same one used by Baylor University with a few minor adjustments. Using the default settings that are linked to the Baylor Business CSS on your pages provides the following benefits.
- Content has a consistent look that conforms with the uniform "look and feel" of the Baylor Business site.
- Viewers can focus more on "what you are saying" on your pages.
- Development time is lessened and code simplified.
- No need for adding font tags (style and size).
- Adding content is easier.
What is a Cascading Style Sheet?
Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) adds style to HTML documents, and consistency. The following components can are made uniform by the Baylor Business CSS.
- font tags
- table content
- body of the file
- paragragh ....
A key feature of CSS is that style sheets can cascade. That is, several different style sheets can be attached to a document and all of them can influence the presentation of the document. In this way, the author can create a style sheet to specify how the page should look, while the reader can attach a personal style sheet to adjust the appearance of the page for human or technological handicaps, such as poor eyesight or a personal preference for a certain font.
