BASEFONT can be declared in the stylesheet, and the stylesheet setting goes into effect when the BASEFONT is encountered, and most stylesheet settings override inline settings. I was able to apply classes with color and font-family, but inheritance of relative font-size is screwed up, as it seems to be relative to the inline declaration rather the CSS declaration. BASEFONT could be a handy way to change the look of sections without encompassing them in a DIV element. Ah, but BASEFONT is deprecated, so no... David Perrell
