And to make life really easy in general, set the base font (using
John's example or whatever one makes you happy ;-) ), and then only
override it as necessary (for example, for headings). Then, if changes
occur (and changes ALWAYS occur!), you only have to change the font
size in one or two places, not everywhere.
(BTW, when I set up my CSS, I include a style definition for headings
just for commonalities:
h1, h2, h3, h4 { color: #000; background: #fff; font-family: Arial,
Helvetica, sans-serif; }
And then separately define the font sizes:
h1 { font-size: 1.8em;}
h2 {font-size: 1.4em;}
So if I decide to change the heading color, I only have to change it
in one place.)
