Conventions

In this book, you will find a number of styles of text that distinguish between different kinds of information. Here are some examples of these styles and an explanation of their meaning.

Code words in text are shown as follows: "Access your Joomla! website via FTP and navigate to the templates directory."

A block of code is set as follows:

#search input[type='text']:focus {
border-color: #09C /* blue */
}

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

<span class="pagination"> 
<span>&laquo;</span>
<span>Start</span>
<span>Prev</span><strong>
<span>1</span></strong>

New terms and important words are shown in bold. Words that you see on the screen, in menus or dialog boxes for example, appear in the text like this: "Select the file from your computer and then click on the Upload File & Install button."
