Cascading Style Sheets (otherwise known as CSS) is a simple mechanism for adding style (e.g.fonts, colors, spacing) to Web documents.

CSS is formally described in two specifications from W3C: CSS1 and CSS2.

CSS1 was issued in December 1996 and describes a simple formatting model mostly for screen-based presentations. It has around 50 properties (for example color and font-size).

The Drupal (CMS) uses .HTACCESS files to control directory access (unless of course you override/remove them and control your settings with modification to your PHP.INI file). On first install of this site I noticed that uploaded images were not visible in the default installation. The way around this is to use the following piece of .htaccess script in the folder where the images are kept on the server. So upload the following script to the offending folder and the images should become visible. SetHandler Drupal_Security_Do_Not_Remove_See_SA_2006_006 Options None
