CSS Base Utility

Note: The files “base.css” and “base-context.css” are deprecated, use “cssbase.css” and “cssbase-context.css” instead.

CSS Base is an optional CSS file that complements YUI’s core CSS foundation (CSS Reset, CSS Fonts, and CSS Grids). CSS Base applies a style foundation for HTML elements that is consistent for A-grade browsers.

CSS Base may also be useful as a template for your own base file, or a snippets library for styling HTML elements.

Many individual values within Base can be overwritten locally by setting them to auto or inherit.
