More magic with style sheets
May 5th, 2003
The old way of attributing properties to text was with font tags.
<font face="Arial,sans-serif" size="4">some text</font>
With the introduction of Cascading Style Sheets, this process becomes far easier.
You can simplify and speed up your coding with css by joining several properties together at one time. An example of this would be
<span style="font: italic bolder 12px arial,sans-serif;">some text</span>
With this, all the text contained within the <span> tags will share the properties as they are listed.
<span style="font: italic bolder 12px arial,sans-serif;">Note that the order that the properties are listed is critical.</span>
