How should type attributes be controlled when creating a website?

• A. HTML
• B. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
• C. JavaScript
• D. XML

Answer: (B)

Controlling typography on a website is handled by CSS because it separates how text looks from the content itself. HTML defines the structure and meaning of elements, while CSS sets presentation, including font family, size, weight, style, line height, color, and spacing. By placing typography rules in a style sheet, you can apply consistent text styling across all pages and update it in one place. For example, you might set a base font and size for the body, then style headings with larger sizes and bolder weights, all via CSS selectors. JavaScript can tweak styles if needed, but it isn’t the primary tool for setting type. XML is a data format and isn’t used for styling presentation. So CSS is the correct approach for controlling type attributes.
