A blog is a short form of weblog. A weblog is a discussion or
informative site of an individual’s ideas, activities, opinions and
advice. Each article in a blog is called a post. In simple words,
a blog is a publicly shared forum of a diary or journal where the
topics can range from personal to politics. Usually, the entries
of these posts are displayed in reverse chronological order, such
that, the most recent post is displayed first, followed by earlier
posts. A blog can include text, images, audio/video and,
hyperlinks. It also allows comments from visitors or readers.
b. Why it is important to be careful about what you post on social [U]
media sites?
Whatever activity you perform online, that is, liking a post,
commenting on a post or posting on wall such as Facebook
wall, all of these form a trail called digital footprints. They can
be seen by all and cannot be removed permanently. These
footprints can be tracked and used to form an opinion about
you. Therefore, it is important to be careful about what you
post on social media.
c. What are the advantages of online payment or ePayment? [R]
 ePayment is very convenient. Individuals can pay bills or
make purchases anytime from any corner of the world.
 It saves time. Once the initial set of the payment is
completed, an individual can pay the bills in seconds.
 The cost of ePayment is nominal compared to other type of
payments, such as a cheque or a demand draft.
 ePayment is becoming more and more secure than the old
traditional ways . Every payment gateway has its own fraud
protection system to protect customers. An individual’s
personal financial data is encrypted before sending it
electronically. It can be made more secure by creating strong
passwords and installing suitable antimalware software.

make the text red and aligned at the centre with the following
example.
p { text-align:center; color:red; }
The id selector uses the id attribute of an HTML tag to apply
style. A unique id has to be within a page. It is used to find a
single and unique element. The example given below will apply
the defined style to the HTML element with id=“pid1”.
b. Write a note on HTML5. [R]

e. _________ is an organisation which sets international standards for

2. Answer the following questions.

a. What is the advantage of using the external style sheet?
Ans: The main advantage is that when we use external style sheet,
all HTML files can be linked to a single CSS file to style the
pages. Whenever you need to change the design of the pages
uniformly, you need to only edit one .css file to make global
changes to your website.

b. Explain any three CSS properties for text using examples

Ans: 1. Text Colour
The color property is used to decide the colour of text in the
web page. The default colour of text for a web page is defined
in the body selector.
Example:
<html>
<head><style>

CB/VIII/2021 Ch.4 Using CSS in HTML Page 1 of 6

 Ch. 4 Using CSS in HTML

body { color:#CA1C9B } h1 { color: #EFAE3C; }

[Link] { color:#22BDCC; }
</style></head><body>
<h1>This is heading level 1</h1>
<p>Displaying the text using CSS properties</p>
<p class=ex>This is a paragraph with class name “ex”.
</p></body></html>

2. Text decoration
The text-decoration property is used for drawing lines over,
across or below the text.
Example:
<html>
<head><style>
h1{ text-decoration: overline; }
h2 { text-decoration: line-through; }
h3 { text-decoration: underline;}
</style></head><body>
<h1>This heading has a line above it</ h1>
<h2>This heading has a line across it</ h2>
<h3>This heading has been styled as underlined
</h3></body></html>

3. Text transformation
The text-transform property is used to specify the case of
letters in the text. It can be used to convert and display text in
uppercase, lowercase or title case that has the first letter of
each word capitalised.
<html><head><style>
[Link] { text-transform:

CB/VIII/2021 Ch.4 Using CSS in HTML Page 2 of 6

 Ch. 4 Using CSS in HTML

uppercase;}
[Link] { text-transform:
lowercase;}
[Link] { text-transform:
capitalize;}</style></head>
<body>
<p class=uppercase>Text styled in uppercase .</p>
<p class=lowercase>Text styled in lowercase.</p>
<p class=capitalize>Text styled in title case, where the first
letter of each word is capitalized.</
p>
</body></html>

c. Explain any two CSS selector using examples.

Ans: Element Selector: The element selector selects elements based
on their names. For example, you can select
all <P> elements on a web page and make the text red and
aligned at the centre with the following example.
p { text-align:center; color:red; }

id Selector: The id selector uses the id attribute of an HTML tag

to apply style. A unique id has to be
within a page. It is used to find a single and unique element.
The example given below will
apply the defined style to the HTML element with id=“pid1”.
Example using id selector
<html><head>
<style> #pid1 {
text-align: center;
color: blue;

CB/VIII/2021 Ch.4 Using CSS in HTML Page 3 of 6

 Ch. 4 Using CSS in HTML

font-size: 18px; }
</style></head><body>
<p id=pid1>This is an example of id selector</p>
<p>This text is not affected by the style.</p>
</body></html>

d. What is CSS? Which are the different ways in which a style sheet

can be added in an HTML page? Explain any one of them.

Ans: CSS is used to specify how HTML elements are displayed. It
allows all formatting to be removed from the HTML document
and store in a separate CSS file. The HTML file then just needs
to be linked to the required CSS file to apply the formats
defined therein. CSS is the language used for describing the
presentation and formatting of web pages, such as colors,
layout, background, borders, fonts and so on.
A style sheet can be of three different types:
• Inline style sheet
• Internal style sheet
• External style sheet
Internal style sheet
When the style sheet is defined in the HEAD section of the
HTML page inside the <STYLE>
tag, it is called an internal style sheet. This type is used when a
single document needs to be
given a unique style.
<head>
<title></title>
<style type=“text/css”> hr { color:green; }
p { margin-left:20px; }
body { background-image:url(“images/[Link]”); }

</style></head><body> … </body>

e. Shreya has created a website with more than ten web pages. She

needs to use CSS for formatting the web pages. Which type of

style sheet she must use and why?

Ans: External Style Sheet.
An external CSS file is created using a text editor containing
the CSS code and is saved with the file extension .css. A link is
then created to this file in the web page by placing the
following code in the <Head> section. Therefore, she should
use external style sheet.

3. Write only CSS code to format the text as shown below.

Ans: <head><style>
h1{text-decoration: underline; text-align: center}
[Link]{text-align:center}
</style>
</head>
