Abstract
CSS, or Cascading Style Sheets, was originally developed as a tool by HÃ¥kon Wium Lie and Bert Bos in 1998 to allow easy styling of markup on the Web. CSS, widely adopted throughout the world, is now an essential tool among web standards developers, who leverage the styling power of CSS in a wide variety of applications, from web sites to book publishing and now rich media applications. Since MXML is a markup language, CSS is also a natural choice for styling Flex applications, so Adobe has implemented the standards established in the CSS specification for the Flex framework.
