We need to add some code to our HTML page. In between the tags you will need to insert code as given below-

<div id="navigation">
<h2>Main navigation</h2>
</div>
<div id="centerDoc">
<h1>Main Heading</h1>
<p>With CSS you define the colors and sizes in "styles"
. Then as you write your documents you 
refer to the styles.
Therefore: if you change a certain style it will change the look of your entire site.
