Cascading Style Sheets

    The first assignment for week two is to make a simple page with an embedded style sheet. I believe that I have spent two entire evenings deciding on colors and fonts that are different from the lesson examples, so I really hope you can see them! It is interesting how much effort one can put into coding, and still not be sure that the results will be seen as the author would like them to be viewed. I can see that HTML and CSS can be very involved.

    At the top of the page are my examples of H1, H2, and H3. I discovered that while the browser understands the color "green," it does not understand "dark green," and instead would display the text for that heading in the color specified for the body text. Finally I figured out the problem but it had me baffled for a while.

    The only other attributes in my embedded styles are for links, so I will add a few links next.
