style and link tags belong in the document head. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head>  </head> <body>..... You can use style attributes on most elements, however it is best practice to just use CSS/Javascript for this tying into custom attributes or class/id attributes.

To add on to Zainab answer, you can import your external CSS file to link to your html using the following syntax: <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="pathToYourCssFile.css"/> </head> The 2 other styling via inline and embed is as explained.

You can put as many <style></style> you want, and anywhere inside <html></html> ( with common restrictions for valid Xml ^^ )...

Hi, There's 3 ways of styling HTML: 1. Inline CSS 2. Embed in the HTML file 3. External CSS.. 1. Inline css looks like this: <p style="color:red;"> Red paragraph</p> 2. Embed CSS: <style> p{ color: red; } </style> 3. External, (in a separate file linked to HTML) p{ color: red; }
