font
Sets a combination of separate font properties of the object. Alternatively, sets one or more of six user-preference fonts.
sFont
String that specifies or receives up to six of the following space-delimited property values, or, alternatively, sets the six listed text fonts:
font-style | Any of the range of font-style values available to the font-style property. |
font-variant | Any of the range of font-variant values available to the font-variant property. |
font-weight | Any of the range of font-weight values available to the font-weight property. |
font-size | Any of the range of font-size values available to the font-size property. When this value is an integer followed by a percent sign (%), the value is a percentage of the font size of the parent object. |
line-height | Any of the range of line-height values available to the line-height property. When used with the font property, this property must include a forward slash (/) before the value. Line height percentage values are calculated as a percentage of the font size of the element itself, not of the parent. |
font-family | Any of the range of font-family values available to the font-family property. This property can be set to multiple comma-separated values. Its default value depends on user settings. |
This property has a default value of normal normal normal medium normal "Times New Roman". It is inherited.
This is a composite property that specifies up to six font values. The font-style, font-variant, and font-weight values may appear in any order before font-size. However, the font-size, line-height, and font-family properties must appear in the order listed. Setting the font property also sets the component properties. In this case, the string must be a combination of valid values for the component properties; only the font-family value may have more than one value. If the string does not contain a value for a component property, that property is set to its default, regardless of prior settings for that component property.
This property is defined in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), Level 1 (CSS1).
