British Vs American English
 
I believe that there are no specifications that one must use only British or American English writing style in CSS. However, it must be taken care of that whenever one writes anything one must use only one of the two formats. One can follow either American English or British English. That is to say; one must not be spelling "Center" as " center and centre" " American and British" at the same time. Follow only one of the two formats. So one must have idea about the spellings of words that are spelled in different ways in the two styles. In grammar, Americans use the simple past tense whereas British talk about the same time through the present perfect tense. I regard uniformity as the right way of writing be that American or English; not the combination of the two.

American Vs British English
 
I asked some people around and they verified that in Pakistan British English is used. So go for British Style of Language. Also if you want to find out more about the differecne between the two; let me know. I'll search for that.
Regards.

Hello Buddy
dnt get confuse and do opt which style wether american or british is easier for u. its true mostly pakistanis prefer british style but american can work also if u are using it properly.
so be confident that whatever style you are about to opt must b clear and free of some major type of mistakes.
