HTML <basefont> tag

The basefont element is deprecated.

Example

Specify a default color and size for text on page:

<head>
<basefont color="red" size="5" />
</head>

<body>
<h1>This is a header</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph</p>
</body>

The <basefont> tag specifies a default font-color, font-size, or font-family for all the text in a document.

The <basefont> tag is only supported by Internet Explorer, and should be avoided!

The basefont element was deprecated in HTML 4.01, and is not supported in XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD.

Tip: Use CSS to specify a default font-color, font-size, and font-family for all the text in a document.

DTD indicates in which DTD the attribute is allowed. S=Strict, T=Transitional, and F=Frameset.
