I want to make all normal text appearing on a page have the same format, it doesn't matter whether it is inside <b> tags or <i> tags or whatever, as long as it is not in <a> tags I want it to have a certain font and font size how would I do this?
i tried using:
.text {whatever}
but it didn't work
PS I've already created the page and I don't want to use CSS classes because then I have to go thorugh the whole page and assign class="whatever" to their tags
hi
In the tutorial by Kevin, there is a part about the use of the $string = htmlspecialchars();
maybe that could help. A similar description is also on page 143 of beginning php4, published by WROX.

Try:
<style>
body
{
font: normal 12px/12px verdana, arial, san serif;
}
</style>
Not positive, but I believe in-line HTML styles such as <b></b>, <i></i> will override the CSS properties though.
Inline tags will not override. The tags that WILL override, however are block tags. This means you could specify a font family for <body> and when you put text inside of a table it wouldn't be displayed properly unless you specified, for example, that font for <table> or <td> or <tr>.
Okay.
Since you odn't want to makeany modifications,
you go to do this:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
body,td,p,a { font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 10pt; }
-->
</style>
If you want to add more tags, just add it with the body,td,p,a code.
That way, all will have that style.
