Change the font inside a table

So you made a table but you would like to change the style of font used in your columns.
Instead of inserting font tags inside each of the cells change your font with CSS. 

<style>
TD.red {color:red }
TD.Arial {font-family:Arial }
</style>
</head>

<table>
<tr><td class="red">
This is some text
</td></tr>
<tr><td class="Arial">
This is some text
</td></tr>

</table>



Special Headline

Want to make a special headline for your page?
Try using positioning to place text over text. 

<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>    
<BODY bgcolor=yellow>

<DIV style="position: absolute; 
top: 15px; 
width: 370px;
height: 80px; 
font-size: 60pt; 
font-family:Verdana; 
color:red">CHICKEN</DIV>
 
<DIV style="position: absolute; 
top: 35px; 
left: 110px; 
width: 300px; 
color:blue; 
height: 20px; 
font-style:italic; 
font-family:Arial; 
font-size: 45pt ">
Super</DIV>

</BODY> 
</HTML>



Drop Shadow

Want to make a Text drop shadow but you don't want to use a large gif or jpeg image.

Use absolute positioning to make a duplicate block of text. Then offset the first text block and use a dark gray color for the text. 


<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>  
<BODY bgcolor=yellow>  


<DIV style="position: absolute; 
top: 15px; 
width: 370px;
height: 80px; 
font-size: 60pt; 
font-family:Verdana; 
color:808080">CHICKEN</DIV>
 
<DIV style="position: absolute; 
top: 10px; 
width: 370px;
height: 80px; 
font-size: 60pt; 
font-family:Verdana; 
color:red">CHICKEN</DIV>

</BODY>
</HTML>



Drop Caps

Want to make the first letter in your paragraph a drop cap?
Try floating that character in a span element. 

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<style>
.dropcap {
width: 1em;
height: 1em;
float: left;
text-align: center;
font-size: 20pt;
color:red;
font-style:italic
}

</style>
</HEAD>
<BODY bgcolor=ddddaa>

<TABLE><TR><TD width="200">
<p><SPAN class="dropcap" >
T</span>his is a dropcap
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text text text 
text text text text text text </p>
</TD></TR></TABLE>
</BODY> 
</HTML>
