1. HTML5, CSS, JavaScript: The web development trifecta
2. main: HTML5 tag defining the main body of a document. Cannot be the child of
the header, nav, article, aside, or footer elements.
3. header and footer: These elements can also be included in article, aside, nav,
main, and section elements, not just on the page itself
4. source: This element identifies the file(s) to use in a video or audio element
5. style guide: A set of standards for the writing and/or design of documents
6. IE9: This version of IE is the first to support HTML5
7. Add them via JS, make them block via CSS: What should you do to support
HTML5 elements in pre-IE9 browsers.
8. selector: The term for the part of CSS code that refers to the element you want
to style
9. declaration: In CSS, the term for a property and value pair. It must always end
with a semicolon
10. rule: In CSS, the name for a selector, property and value all grouped together
11. inheritance: The word "cascading" in CSS refers to this concept
12. External, embedded, inline: The cascading order of CSS style sheets, ordered
from lowest priority to highest
13. rel, type, href: Linking to a CSS file requires these attributes in the link element
14. style: Embedded CSS should be placed in a block defined by this element
15. style: Inline CSS should be placed in an attribute with this name
16. document flow: The arrangement of content elements on a page and how the
space is used. Does it fall from top to bottom in stacks, or does some content float
to one side or the other?
17. curly braces: These are not used when defining inline CSS styles
18. clear: Use this CSS property to avoid having floating elements before/after
another element
19. static: In CSS, the "normal, or default", position of block elements within a page
20. relative: In CSS, positioning a block element relative to another element
21. absolute: In CSS, this causes the element to appear to float above the docu-
ment and can be positioned as needed. It is completely removed from the rest of
the page flow.
22. fixed: In CSS, this causes the element to remain in the same position when the
page is scrolled
23. inherit: In CSS, this causes the element to inherit its parent's position
24. padding: In the box model, this is the space between the content and the border
25. margin: In the box model, this is the space between the border and surrounding
elements

26. content, padding, border, and margin: Add all of these up to get the full size
of an element in the box model
27. element[attribute$=value]: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of a
specified element whose specified attribute ends with the specified value
28. element[attribute*=value]: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of a
specified element whose specified attribute contains the specified substring value
29. element[attribute^=value]: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of a
specified element whose specified attribute begins with the specified value
30. element:checked: This CSS3 selector selects every checked instance of a
specified element
31. element:disabled: This CSS3 selector selects every disabled instance of a
specified element
32. element:enabled: This CSS3 selector selects every enabled instance of a
specified element
33. element:first-of-type: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of a specified
element that is the first of its parent
34. element:last-of-type: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of a specified
element that is the last of its parent
35. element1~element2: This CSS3 selector selects every instance of element2
that is preceded by an instance of element1 where both have the same parent.
element2 need not be immediately preceded by element1
36. multiple images: CSS3 now allows this in the background
37. background-clip: CSS3 property determining whether the background extends
into the border or not (content, padding, or border)
38. background-origin: CSS3 property defining the location to which the back-
ground-position property should be relative (content, padding, or border)
39. length, percentage, cover, contain: CSS3 values used in a background-size
property. Last two are optional. Default is auto.
40. rgba: Whereas the opacity property applies to an element and its children, you
can use this to specify the opacity of a single element
41. @font-face: CSS3 rule allowing you to specify custom fonts
42. 400: This font weight is the same as normal
43. 700: This font weight is the same as bold
44. 100-900: Range of font weights
45. text-shadow: IE9 and earlier do not support this text property
46. font-family and src: These two CSS3 properties are required by @font-face
47. transform: An effect that changes an element's shape, size and/or position
48. transform-origin: Property that allows you to change a transformed element's
position
