Cascading Style Sheets Class Usage in SharePoint Foundation

Applies to: SharePoint Foundation 2010

Cascading style sheets (CSS) define style rules that a developer can apply to elements in a Web page. For example, CSS styles can define how elements are displayed and where they are positioned on the page. You can use CSS in conjunction with ECMAScript (JavaScript, JScript) and the HTML elements defined on the master page (v4.master) and individual pages to customize the display of Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web sites.
