Cascading Style Sheets Definition
(CSS) An extension to {HTML} to allow styles, e.g. colour, {font}, size to be specified for certain elements of a {hypertext} document.
Style information can be included in-line in the HTML file or in a separate CSS file (which can then be easily shared by multiple HTML files).
Multiple levels of CSS can be used to allow selective overriding of styles.

HTML Definition
Hyper Text Markup Language (HTML) is the programming language that internet browsers use to display a web page.
Each element (commonly known as "tags") contains an instruction, commanding the browser how to display images and words.
HTML is standardized by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3c) and is followed by most of the leading browsers.
The industry leaders, Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer use HTML, but do not include support for all of the same tags.
Thus a page viewed in IE can look vastly different from a page viewed in Netscape.
