Example 5: Complete Shopping Cart Template

This example shows a more comprehensive shopping cart template, including product details, quantity selection, and a checkout button. This demonstrates how to integrate "Add to Cart" buttons within a larger e-commerce context.

This example uses an external stylesheet (`custom.css`) for styling. Below is the content of this stylesheet.


body {
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
}
.Product-img img {
  width: 100%;
}
.main-section {
  font-family: 'Roboto Condensed', sans-serif;
  margin-top: 100px;
}
h2 { color: green; }
h4 { color: red; }
strong { color: red; }
p { color: green; }
h5 { color: red; }

The stylesheet is linked to the HTML using a `` tag like this:


<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="custom.css">

External Stylesheets

External stylesheets (`.css` files) are separate files containing only CSS rules. They are linked to HTML documents using the `` tag to separate styling from content. This improves organization and maintainability.
