Name Font Description Defines the font colour, name (face), and size of text contained within the tag.  To keep the size of pages down (where the FONT tag is used excessively) and to keep a uniform look throughout the site, style sheets should be used instead. Attributes COLOR Specifies the colour.  Colours can be defined in this format: #RRGGBB where the values are in hexadecimal format.  E.g. #FF0000 is red.  Colours can also be defined with words e.g. red. FACE Specifies the font.  You can use commas to separate multiple fonts - the browser will use the first one that is available on the system. SIZE Specifies the font size - from 1 (smallest) to 7 (largest).  The following table gives the equivalent sizes in pts: SIZE Value Font size in pts 1 8 2 10 3 12 4 14 5 18 6 24 7 36 Example Code <font face="Verdana,Arial,Tahoma" size="5" color="orange">Sample Text</font> Generates Sample Text Please fill in the below form if you have any comments or additional information you want to add about the above information.  If you have any questions, please visit the Forum.  Any questions sent using this form will be ignored. * - Mandatory *Name: E-mail: *Comments: *Please type the following code (your comment cannot be accepted without it): © Martin Allen 1999 - 2006.  Last updated Thursday 09 November 2006 10:04:11 PM -0000.
