This tutorial explores CSS inside and out, including how to create style sheets for XML documents with CSS. You find out that CSS style properties, although simple to use, provide a considerable degree of flexibility over the positioning and formatting of XML content. You also learn how to control the flow of text on a page, not to mention how to use fonts, colors, background images, and letter spacing.
