How can I set a page's default font to a particular style? I'm building up a site that's going to use many upon many table cells all in Arial bold and I don't want to create the font decleration everywhere.

I also noticed input boxes default to Arial (atleast in Mozilla), those I'd like to always be Arial Normal weight.

<body font=&quot;Ariel&quot; >
and make a style sheet defining the font in the body and input

Sometimes, when my code just won't behave, I take it outside and make it listen to britney spears music, and when it comes back it's really well behaved. I wonder if it's suffering from post tramatic stress syndrome now..

I'm able to get the default font switched to arial, but it's not accepting different sizes or weights. Is there some extra trick, or do both IE & Mozilla ignore those added properties?
