    Site-wide changes to the "look-and-feel" of a static website
    require that the webmaster visit and update each and every file
    that comprises the website.  Websites can typically grow to
    encompass thousands of files, so this can become a non-trivial
    task.  The webmaster responsible for our automobile advertising
    website has the additional responsibility of keeping the ads
    themselves fresh.  If each page in the website represents an ad
    for a particular automobile, he needs to delete the pages
    representing ads which have expired and create new pages for ads
    which have been recently sold.  He then needs to make sure that no
    hyperlinks on other pages point to missing pages.

       The difficulty of updating the "look-and-feel" of a site can be reduced by having each page in the site refer
       to a stylesheet. Stylesheets are written in CSS(Cascading Style Sheet) and provide instructions to the
       browser on how to render the page HTML. To update the "look-and-feel", the webmaster need change only the
       stylesheet.
       In order to allow more flexibility in styling a page, extra markup tags may be added to the HTML.
