Empower your business.

Website Design Technology



Your customers are looking for you right now. And with a well-designed website, they’re going to have a much easier time finding you on the Internet. That’s our specialty – we design websites from scratch (bespoke design) and that means your site will be unique to your business’ needs. The technology for web design is constantly being updated, and we make it our business to stay on top of updates in design. The end result for you is a functional, easy to use site that is current and sophisticated.

Cascading style sheets

Cascading style sheets are a great way to define and set up the desired structure in relation to colors, typeset and spacing, etc. without affecting the HTML’s definition of document structure or meta tags. HTML defines the content structure, while CSS defines how they’re displayed.

There is a default style to HTML tags but with CSS you can alter them through the creation of style sheets that create styles to all occurrences of a given tag or to a group of tags if you prefer. In this way, styles can be shared throughout your site by multiple documents, and it is as simple to define a style sheet within an HTML page as using a STLYE tag between the < head > and < / head > tags. Or you may want to define your style sheets in a separate file (known as an external style sheet) to be referenced by a specific URL on your site. This can be done by using a LINK tag in the head of the document in the same manner as used with the STYLE tag.

A browser reads a style sheet in order to format the document it’s presenting. Style sheets can be inserted three ways:

External style sheets. When you need one style to be used on many pages, external style sheets are the way to go. This makes changing the look of your entire website as easy as changing one file. Each page using that style sheet must link back to the style sheet by inserting a < link > tag inside your page’s head section. You can write an external style sheet in any simple text editor and save it as a .css file.
Internal style sheets. Use these when you want a singular look for a particular document. Internal style sheets are placed in your page’s head section with a < style > tag. If an older browser doesn’t support style tags the content will still be displayed on the page, but the < style > tag will be ignored.
Inline style sheets. These are best used for a singular event occurrence. Inline style sheets mix content and presentation and this means you lose the flexibility inherent in style sheets, which is why using them sparingly is advisable. With inline style sheets the relevant style attribute is used in the tag to perhaps change margins or fonts.
