I've created the MyTableClass CSS class(stored in .CSS file) and specified it to a HTML table.
.MyTableClass
{
font-size: 8pt;
}
However the size of font inside the table was bigger than I specified.
Thanks to VS 2008 CSS properties pane - Applied Rules section I was able to find that the rule was overridden by TD element style
TD
font-size: 12px;
It was not hard to create hack to override global TD.
.MyTableClass TD
I feel that having global element rule is not a good idea.
Unfortunately I am scared to change the style, because it is used in many places in production.
Update: I found very similar post Tackling Stubborn TD Style Definitions, written by Jovan.
