CSS Font and Text Style Wizard

Welcome to the CSS Font and Text Style Wizard, brought to you due to the popularity of the HTML and CSS Table Border Style Wizard. Use this wizard to experiment with font and text styles and generate sample CSS style source code. This wizard uses dynamic HTML to change the style of the table in-situ, without loading another page. It is cross-browser compatible with Firefox, Netscape, Internet Explorer, and other modern browsers.

Font and Text Style Notes

Font Family

For font-family, you can specify an actual font name, like “Courier New” in the custom field. If the name has spaces, you should quote it, and it is case-insensitive. You can specify a comma-separated list of font names, which will be used in the order listed when some are not found on the user’s system. Designers should use the most desired font first, the most compatible font second-to-last, and the generic font family last and always. For example, a common font-family value is "Verdana", "Arial", sans-serif.

Units

When you use specify lengths in CSS, you should generally use the relative units appropriate to the property. For width properties, use ex units, which corresponds to the width of the lower-case ‘x’ character. For height properties, use em units, which corresponds to the height of the capital ‘M’ character. Relative units are preferred to absolute units, like px, pt, and in. One reason for this is that one day, monitors may have more than 96 dots per inch, in which case your 14px font will look too small. Other relative values like smaller, bolder, and percentages are also better choices than the absolute values. There are always exceptions though.

  10. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.

  16. Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

  17. Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
