I need some help with the main font of this site (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://sc.gameover.com">http://sc.gameover.com</a><!-- m -->). I want all the text in the frame to be the same font as the hyperlinks. Changing that font is easy enough, but I'm having a hard time getting the effect I want.<!--content-->You may define the document's body's font and stuff by defining "body" in the stylesheet, in the same way as you define A:link, A:hover etc.<br />
Here's an example:<br />
<br />
body {<br />
color: #000000;<br />
text-decoration: none;<br />
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;<br />
font-size: 10px;<br />
}<!--content-->Ouu thankyou :)<!--content-->I assume you want a web safe font? Meaning one that you know the end user is going to have on their system. There are only about 8 web safe fonts as far as I know. Can dig the list out later if you want to know them.<!--content-->He actually asked how to define the font of the body.<!--content-->How would I get this to apply to text within a table. For instance, refer to the previous site, and look at the info page.<!--content-->...by defining table in the stylesheet, in the same way as body and everything else. Almost all tags may be defined in the stylesheet, by using the tag's name, such as div, span, td. There are lots of things to define such as borders and stuff, so not only the font. You could have a look at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp">http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp</a><!-- m --><!--content-->i dont why everyone always is wondering about "how do i use fonts other than web safe"?<br />
you can link any font from a website (and there are many websites like <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.barrysclipart.com">www.barrysclipart.com</a><!-- w --> that have them), just like you would link an image.<!--content-->it doesn't work like that morrow, the end user has to have that particular font installed on their system to be able to see it, that's why there are websafe fonts because these are most likely to be on the users system<!--content-->
