font information to be used as the basis for text rendering of the
current page below the <span class="literal">basefont</span> element. You can
apply this element in either the <span class="literal">head</span> or
<span class="literal">body</span> portion of the document (although Microsoft
recommends in the <span class="literal">body</span> only for IE 4 and later),
and you can insert <span class="literal">basefont</span> elements as often as
is needed to set the base font for a portion of the document. Be
aware that <span class="literal">basefont</span> element settings do not
necessarily apply to content in tables. If you want table content to
resemble a custom <span class="literal">basefont</span> setting, you likely
have to set the font styles to table elements separately.
</p><p>The <span class="literal">basefont</span> element overrides the default font
settings in the browser's user preferences settings.
Like most font-related elements, the <span class="literal">basefont</span>
element is deprecated in HTML 4 in favor of style sheets, and is
removed from the HTML 4 and XHTML strict DTDs.
