The Difference Between HTML And CSS

HTML and CSS are complementary to the creation and design of a web document. HTML is the short form for “Hypertext Markup Language”, which is one of the old standards for designing websites. While CSS is the short form of “Cascading style sheets”, which is relatively new language for designing websites and is not that easy to understand for the new web designers.

7- HTML include Apps (spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, etc) in their documents.

10- Browsers do not display the HTML tags, but use them to render the content of the page.
11- It is possible to learn HTML without knowledge of CSS.

1- CSS is also one of the core technology for building web pages.
2- CSS was developed to simplify the code in much bigger pages.
3- CSS provides the (visual and aural) layout, for a variety of devices.
4- CSS makes a website look amazing.
5- CSS designs color, fonts and layout including: headings, text, tables, lists, photos, etc.
6- CSS adapts display across different types of devices like large screens, small screens etc.
7- CSS provides easier site maintenance in which style can be modified without changing the HTML elements.
8- CSS modifies multiple web pages using a single style sheet.
9- External stylesheets are stored in CSS files.
10- CSS can be use in an HTML file.
11- It is also quite forgiving with mistakes, still showing some result even when there are errors in the code.

12- CSS can still be beneficial for small pages but the benefits are more apparent as the size of the page grows.
