Basic structure of an HTML
- <!DOCTYPE>
- <html>
- <head>
- <title>
- <body>
Combining <font> tag attributes
<font size="5">
<font color="yellow">
<font face="arial">
Some text
</font>
</font>
</font>
Specifying individual attribute with separate <font> tags is insufficient as the browser has to process these extra tags. Additionally, it is confusing and long. Instead of individually specifying the size, color, or face of a font, you can combine all three into one <font> tag:
<font size="5" color="yellow" face="arial">Some text</font>.
