2 CSS features

2.1 Inheritance

• Inheritance of CSS means that child elements can inherit certain style properties of parent elements, thereby reducing the writing of repetitive code.
• But not all properties are inherited. There are three types of properties with inheritance in CSS:
  • Text-related properties: font( font-family/ font-size/ font-style/ font-weight), line-height, text-align, textindent, word-spacing;
  • List-related properties: list-style-image, list-style-position, list-style-type, list-style;
  • Color-related properties: color;

2.2 Cascading

• The cascading nature of CSS means that the same element can be styled according to the weight of the selector.
