This comprehensive course is designed to empower learners with the foundational and advanced skills required to style XHTML documents using CSS. Through progressive modules, learners will apply core styling principles, analyze layout techniques using the CSS box model, and create modular, responsive, and maintainable designs by leveraging class-based styling, contextual selectors, and stylesheet integration strategies.

Beginning with essential selectors and spanning through advanced techniques such as background manipulation, external style linking, and style inheritance, this course balances theory with hands-on practice. Learners will also explore how to evaluate cascading rules, synthesize structured layouts, and construct cross-browser-compatible web documents using conditional comments and real-world examples. Structured to support step-by-step mastery, each lesson includes targeted objectives using Bloom’s Taxonomy verbs and integrates practice quizzes and graded assessments to reinforce learning outcomes.

This module introduces the core concepts of CSS styling, including selectors, classes, and structural elements. Learners will understand how to apply and control styles through type, class, ID, and contextual selectors to build flexible and maintainable XHTML documents.
