User:ccsmith/common.css

 * To experiment or create CSS code, open a page entitled "user: (your user name)/common.css"
 * The code created only effects your user pages.
 * This CSS code is not the "inline style." See Help:Wiki University Wikitext--Inline Styling.
 * This code is created this way:
 * p {
 * backround-color:blue;
 * border:1ps solid black;
 * }


 * When you then add a paragraph to a page it will have a blue background and black letters.
 * FamilySearch Wiki
 * So if you add another paragraph anywhere else on a page it to will have a blue background and black letters.
 * This is the beauty of common.css.
 * You can then change the background, for example, on all the paragraphs simply by changing the "blue" to another color without having to go through the page and change each paragpaph which you would have to with inline styling.
 * Go to W3 School for more on css coding.
 * Don't do any coding like this in Beta or Production without permission.
