The CSS font properties define the font in
text.CSS Font Properties
The CSS font properties allow you to change the font family,
boldness, size, and the style of a text.
Note: In CSS1 fonts are identified by a font name. If
a browser does not support the specified font, it will use a
default font.
Browser support: IE: Internet Explorer, F: Firefox, N:
Netscape.
W3C: The number in the "W3C" column indicates in which
CSS recommendation the property is defined (CSS1 or CSS2).
