<!-- CSS 2.1 Reference

Property Name: font


Default Value: see individual properties
Inherited: yes
Possible values directly from the standard:
[ [ 'font-style' and/or 'font-variant' and/or 'font-weight' ]? 'font-size' [ / 'line-height' ]? 'font-family' ], caption, icon, menu, message-box, small-caption, status-bar, inherit

Property Description:

This is the shorthand property that defines the multiple font-related properties. These include: font-style, font-variant, font-weight, font-size, line-height, and font-family. If a property is omitted, the default value (of that property) will be used for that property. Values are separated by spaces, while the values within the font-family property are separated by commas. The line-height property value must appear after the font-size value, and separated by a forward slash ( / ) character. CSS specifies additional 'derived' named values that may be used, which include caption, icon, menu, message-box, small-caption, and status-bar, which derive the font qualities from the names browser element. Support for these values is inconsistent, and should be avoided.


Example:

.my_font { font: italic bold 1.5em/2 "Times New Roman", Times, serif; }
