How do I change font type and reduce font size?

By fishcuisine, in CSS

I’m back…

 

As you can see below, I just might make it into Little League.

 

Question: Where should I place the code to reduce the size of print?Since type size is too large, I can not place in the complete Menu wordings.

 

Also, if I wanted to change the font to Arial font?

How would I reflect that?

<meta name="keywords" content="SushiMenu1">

<meta name="description" content="Horizontal menu item1">

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

 

<title>Sushi Menu</title>

 

<style type="text/css">

#menu{

Place this code immediately after <style type="text/css"> :-

body {
font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.3;
color: #000000;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
}

with a color of your choice (#00000 is black) and change the font-size to what you want.

 

If you only want the font to apply to the menu, change body to #menu

Hello Wickham,

 

It works! Appreciate it.

 

But you probably already saw this coming...

 

As you know each box has 122px width, which means there are uneven gaps between MENU ITEMS

 

i.e. HOME OUR MISSION CHEF DIPLOMA COURSE LOCATION INQUIRE

QUESTION: Where would I place codes to even out the spacing between MENU ITEMS?

 

i.e. HOME OUR MISSION CHEF DIPLOMA COURSE LOCATION INQUIRE

 

Tnks again,

Where would I place codes to even out the spacing between MENU ITEMS?

If you need each item to have the same width as all your other nav items, you can't. However, if different nav items can have different widths, you can do this:

 

-- remove "width:122px; " from "#nav li a"

-- add "padding: 0 10px;" to "#nav li a". This adds 10 px padding to the left/right of the nav element, and you can then adjust as necessary.

Hello Wickham,

 

I replaced “width:122px;” with “padding:0 10px:” . I changed the 0 and 10px to various numbers 10 20 15 etc. but no change.

I notice you have #nav li a" and I have it #menu li a" ?

 

Result is the wordings are stuck together and in two levels of Nav Bar…?

Sorry, I meant #menu, not #nav. You can't have quotes around your CSS. This:

 

"padding:0 10px;"

needs to be

 

padding:0 10px;

The quotes were only intended to indicate what code you needed to add.

Did the following:

 

-- remove "width:122px; " from "#nav li a"

-- add "padding: 0 10px;" to "#nav li a".

 

Nothing happened.

 

Added 5px to other padding.I get the spacings but there are gaps between Menu Items...? What can I say...?

Hello there,

 

You know what? What? You can't have quotes around your CSS.

 

 

I missed that! Without the quotes, it works P e r f e c t l y!

 

I really must brush up on my typing skills.

Last two items. That should do it. I hope...

 

-- When I place my arrow over each Menu Item, there is no change of hover color. It did it before.

 

-- Since my Header Image is 1025 px in length, I have to extend the Nav Bar to match (1025 px)

Right now it is about 6 inches in length.

 

Tnks again...
