The Body is the content of your document. You will put your divs, h1, etc in the body.

7,444 PointsInternal Styles are defined in the head section of an html page, by using a style tag. Place the style tag under the title tag. See example below. It is useful for small-scale sites and for testing new features on your site. Below is an example; <head> <title>Lake Tahoe</title> <style> p { font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; } h1 { font-size: 90px; color: firebrick; } header { background-color: orange; } </style> </head> <body> <!--You put the main content here, i.e header, navigation bar, text and lists of images.--> </body> <footer> </footer>
Above shows an html page with an internal stylesheet, where you put all the styling rules within the head section. If you want to make complex website you need to make an external stylesheet.
Hope this is of help. Jane
