    CSS: Text, Fonts, and Tables - How to Set the Boldness of a Font


    (Page 5 of 6 )

    You can set the amount of boldness of a font using font-weight. Here is how:


    <html>

    <head>

    <style type="text/css">

    p.normal {font-weight: normal}

    p.thick {font-weight: bold}

    p.thicker {font-weight: 900}

    </style>

    </head>

    <body>

    <p class="normal">I'm pretty open-minded</p>

    <p class="thick">I'm thick headed.</p>

    <p class="thicker">I'm thick headed...er.</p>

    </body>

    </html>

    And lastly:

    Setting All of the Font Properties


    <html>

    <head>

    <style type="text/css">

    p

    {

    font: italic small-caps 900 40px impact

    }

    </style>

    </head>

    <body>

    <p>Attack of the Giant Midgets!</p>

    </body>

    </html>
