this is css script that i was using for a design but this is a general idea on how it works best suggestion would be go to websites that have free templates that use
CSS and it will give you a general idea what it looks like
and what you can use if you want the tamplate that goes with css let me know.
CODE

font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;

If you have Dreamweaver - or any other HTML editor that has that feature, for that matter, you can make a CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) fairly easily with a few clicks - and you can apply it to all the pages on your site for consistency. If not, then try the code that one of the members posted.
