Wordpress uses CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) which will normally be one file for instance maybe called style.css that takes care of your layout, text and colours.

Here explains about css from scratch.

The W3C website is excellent. Essentially HTML is used for content, CSS is used for formatting/layout :wink:
