12.2. Setting the Font Size (font-size Property)The font-size WCSS property is used to set the font size of some text. It takes a length value that we discussed in the "Common Types of Property Value: Length" section of this WCSS tutorial. Here is an example that illustrates its use:
p {font-size: 12pt}
The above WAP CSS style statement specifies that the font size of the text enclosed in <p></p> tags should be 12 points. The font-size WCSS property also accepts the following keywords: xx-small, x-small, small, medium, large, x-large and xx-large. The default value of the font-size WCSS property is medium. The keywords smaller and larger are also valid property values.
12.3. Setting the Font Style: Italic, Bold and Underline (font-style, font-weight and text-decoration Properties)Two font styles, italic and bold, are used frequently in many mobile Internet applications. To specify the italic font style to some text, you need to use the font-style WCSS property. For example:
p {font-style: italic}
The above WAP CSS style statement specifies that the text enclosed in <p></p> tags should be displayed in italics. The same effect can be achieved with the XHTML MP tag <i>. To specify the bold font style to some text, you need to use the font-weight WCSS property. For example:
h1 {font-weight: bold}
The above WAP CSS style statement specifies that all level-1 headings should be displayed in bold type. The same effect can be achieved with the XHTML MP tag <b>. Note that there is no <u> tag in XHTML MP. To underline some text, the text-decoration WCSS property must be used, like this:
h1 {text-decoration: underline}
The above WAP style statement specifies that all level-1 headings should be underlined.
