HTML Font Style Code
In HTML, font style is specified using CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). Font style refers to whether the font is presented in italics or normal. You can use the following HTML code to specify font style within your HTML documents.
The above code uses inline styles. Inline styles are when you place the CSS right inside the HTML tag using the style attribute (eg, style="font-style:blue;").
Example using Embedded Style Sheets
As with any CSS code, you should place it into an embedded style sheet, or even better, an external style sheet where appropriate.
