    You style HTML with CSS. I'm not going to waste time posting a detailed answer to somebody who can't be bothered even differentiating between the two. Start with W3 Schools to learn the basic descriptions.

    Yeah, it's not an either-or proposition, CSS without HTML does absolutely nothing, since CSS is applied TO HTML.

    CSS is more complex than HTML? If that's what you're asking. Like deathshadow said, it's applied to HTML, it serves no purpose on it's own.

    There is one advantage of using CSS, you may insert at one place and use any time and at place on the webpage.

    Here is the big difference,

    HTML is for showing your data online and CSS is used to style it.

    CSS is much better for layout than HTML. But HTML is the foundation for all websites - HTML is the "mother tongue" of your browser. HTML is used to structure content. CSS is used for formatting structured content.

    Yea, everyone on top basically nailed it.

    You really need both these days. Start with HTML then learn CSS for design. Javascript will be useful to.

    HTML is nothing more than pure markup. It is a bunch of tags that enable you to put content on a page. Whereas CSS is for the presentation of this content. Something has to tell the HTML tags what to do in order to be "pretty".

    CSS and HTML, both are made for each other, you will have to learn both, without any one of them, the other is almost is waste! but Yes in case of answering, technically if you see CSS is much easy then HTML...

    You cannot campare html and css. Both have different purpose.
    HTML is for display text.
    CSS is for style your text.
    Simple!

    Hmm, not so much. CSS is a stand-alone declarative presentation language. It is orthogonal to the document's language; e.g. html is a declaratory structural markup language, whereas xml is a declaratory data-descriptive markup language (where there are no preset tag tokens). Yet, css may be applied against either. CSS is applied against the document object model and doesn't care nor does it need to know the language of the document.

    cheers,

    gary
