One of the more recent changes to my website was the changing of the background of this site. Previously, I had the background of the site encoded into each individual web page. When adding new pages, I just copied the code from one page to another. However, changing the background for over 80 pages was a very cumbersome job to think of. So, I decided to ask some other webmasters at the UWSAG forum for advice. Here is what I learned: You can create one file to change all the borders for all your pages. It is called a CSS - Cascading Style Sheet.

I used many online resources to find information on CSS. One of the sites that assisted me was the W3C site.

Here are the basic rules... First, create a css file using the rules found at the previous site. Alternative, do a web search on css for more help. Second, call the css file from your html document as follows.

<link rel=stylesheet type="text/css" href="my.css">
replace "my.css" with the name of your css file.

A useful tool for this project was EditPad Lite . This is the editor I used to create my css files.
