What I meant was that if you have this type of HTML code (attributes not to be
confused with inline style!):

<font size="2" face="arial">blah-blah</font>

then you can /style/ the <font> tag using CSS (external or else) in one of the
ways I described in my previous post, and override the values contained in the
HTML attributes. And believe me, it works! (I've been there :)
