This section assumes you have a basic understanding of HTML.
CSS Stands for Cascading Style Sheets. CSS styles define how to display HTML elements (including typeface, color, size, etc.). You can redefine existing HTML elements such as <h1> or <p> tags or you can create your own style classes. These classes are used in your HTML Tags.
The content management system pages have cascading style sheets that are linked to each page. The following example shows how you would use the "FontTitleSection" class to set a style on a paragraph:
<p class="FontTitleSection">the paragraph text</p>
This paragraph would display as you see below:
