The sole purpose for  is to allow you to set the fonts for a span of text. This is done by creating a styles rule, then applying the style to a  element.

For example, suppose you want your product names displayed in a special style. First, you could create a style rule in the like this:

<STYLE TYPE="text/css">
<!--
.product
{
color:brown;
font-weight:900;
font-size:95%;
font-family:sans-serif;
}
-->
</STYLE>

This rule creates a styles class named product and sets the font color to brown, weight to 900, the size to 95%, and the font family to the generic font family "san-serif".

We can now apply the product class to a  element using the CLASS attribute:

Our new software product, 
<SPAN CLASS="product">MOFAT</SPAN>,
brings a new lvel of quality to ground-water analysis.

which gives us
