Keep trying. You need to read up on the syntax of CSS.

^^^^^^^^
This is not valid CSS, should be "font-size: 1.2em;" or something similar

Yeah, don't use the FONT element and also don't use "pt" Points are for
printing not display...

For FONT to work you should put a FONT element within each TD element
and the FONT element requires both an opening and closing tag and I do
not see any closing tags...but again DON'T use it, style with CSS
