<basefont> tag has a single attribute recognized by all browsers, SIZE, whose value determines the entire document's base font size. It may be specified as an absolute value from 1 to 7, or as a relative value by placing a plus or minus sign before the value. In the latter case, the base font size is increased or decreased by that relative amount. The default base font size is 3.
< basefont > tag's effects are immediate and hold for all subsequent text.
< basefont > tag: COLOR and NAME. These attributes control the color and typeface used for the text in a document and are used just like the color and face attributes for the < font > tag.
The following example illustrates how Netscape responds to the
<basefont> tag and </basefont> end tag, including fixed and relative values:

<basefont size=-1>
<basefont size=-1>
<basefont size=-1>
<basefont size=-1>
