CSS CSS CSS and Media Types Tutorial
First let us have a quick think about what possibilities this opportunity to restyle your page for a different output medium gives us all as designers. You?ve probably witnessed what a mess some pages can look once they?ve been transferred onto paper ? useless navigation areas and ads take up space , paper and ink. The page can often look cluttered and can become illegible given the more restricted dimensions of the page.

Over the last few years it has become customary for large sites to offer links to ?printer-friendly? pages ? separate pages that were stripped of this unnecessary content. These pages were time-consuming to generate and costly to maintain, and so disparities between the content on the two versions of the same page often crept in. With the simple CSS methods in this tutorial, nothing more than a second stylesheet would be necessary for all of these pages to print perfectly .

There are even more browser types to consider, such as aural browsers, which read webpages aloud to their users; or Braille displays, which can create interfaces from a webpage readable to their blind users. The software that drives these applications will often include a default stylesheet which will apply stylings relevant to the medium, but now you can get in there and add your own styles to these outputs.
