[6] [3] Sass was designed to both simplify and extend CSS, so things like curly braces were removed from the syntax. Less was designed to be as close to CSS as possible, and as a result existing CSS can be used as valid Less code. [7] The newer versions of Sass also introduced a CSS-like syntax called SCSS (Sassy CSS).
Style may be chosen specifically for a piece of content, see e.g., color; scope of parameters Alternatively, style is specified for CSS selectors, expressed in terms of elements, classes, and ID's.
In 1996, CSS [10] introduced margin, border and padding for many more elements. It adopted a definition width in relation to content, border, margin and padding similar to that for a table cell. [11] This has since become known as the W3C box model. At the time, very few browser vendors implemented the W3C box model to the letter.

The style sheet author might also define a rule with the .notation selector and define the property font-size: small;. The style attribute provides a way of applying element-specific style rules.
Though most polyfills target out-of-date browsers, some exist to simply push modern browsers forward a little bit more. Lea Verou's -prefix-free polyfill is such a polyfill, allowing current browsers to recognise the unprefixed versions of several CSS3 properties instead of requiring the developer to write out all the vendor prefixes.
CSS allows developers to move formatting attributes such as font color, font style, font size, background color, borders, section sizes, and other elements to a single separate file, resulting in much simpler code and more flexible handling of final rendering. Because of this feature, CSS is heavily used in nearly all Chrome experiments.
