Netscape 4.0 seems to have it also. Don't know about other browsers. Also there are additional colors now. I tried "gold" and it works. Some browsers requires an "#rrggbb" number and you can always use them for any thing calling for color. Here are a few I randomly tried. Thee is always the "bbggbb" way. By the way, these numbers can be Capital or lower case.
****GOLD************* ***VIOLET************** ***YELLOW**************

** FACE **

Font face is... the font face! I mean, the font itself. Normally, a font is restrained to Times New Roman, or whatever font the user has
chosen as a default font.

The general form is this :<font face="font1">Characters</font>
or for multilal shots on hitting a resident font.
The general form is this :<font face="font1,font2,font3">Characters</font>

The FACE attribute is Internet Explorer 2.0 Netscape 4.0 seems to have it also. Don't know about other browsers.



face="Impact,Arial,Courier" face="Impact,Arial,Courier"
Font face is a very optional tag. the thing is, often you just
won't HAVE a particular font your computer. The first font (font1)
listed is the default font. If the user don't have that one, font2 is
chosen, and if not, font3. No more than 3, tho .If none of those fonts
are found, then there is not font face effect at all.
