Font-Size and Font-Family Inherited Issue in and <textfield></strong></p> <p>Many developers encounter the peculiar behavior of <textarea> and <textfield> elements not inheriting font-family and font-size styles set in the <body> tag. This discrepancy is attributed to a deliberate choice in HTML and CSS specifications.</p> <p>To address this issue, you can explicitly override the default behavior with the following CSS code:</p> <div class="code" style="position:relative; padding:0px; margin:0px;"><pre>textarea { font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; }</pre><div class="contentsignin">Copy after login</div></div> <p>This CSS declaration ensures that <textarea> and <textfield> elements inherit the font settings from the <body> container.</p> <p>It's important to note that this is not isolated to these elements. Other elements, such as <input> and <select>, also inherit font properties explicitly defined in their CSS rules.</p> <p>By explicitly specifying font properties in your CSS, you can ensure consistent styling across all elements in your web page. Remember, however, that explicitly setting font properties may override any inherited styles from parent elements.</p>
