BASEFONT - Default font size

Appearance:	<BASEFONT SIZE=`n`>
Attributes:	SIZE=`n`
Contents:	None (Empty).
May occur in:	BODY, DIV, CENTER, BLOCKQUOTE, FORM, TH, TD, DT, DD, LI, P, H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6, PRE, ADDRESS, TT, I, B, U, STRIKE, BIG, SMALL, SUB, SUP, EM, STRONG, DFN, CODE, SAMP, KBD, VAR, CITE, FONT, A, APPLET, CAPTION.

The BASEFONT tag is used to suggest a default font size. FONT tags using a relative font size will use the value set here. The SIZE attribute is an integer value ranging from 1 to 7. The base font size applies to the normal and preformatted text but not to headings, except where these are modified using the FONT element with a relative font size.

Notes:

Do not use FONT or BASEFONT to manipulate the font appearance, use BIG and SMALL for local changes, and style sheets as a more general solution.
