If you are using CSS you probably won't see FONT tags in the HTML code. The
font attributes are defined when you load the CSS.
<p></p> paragraph tags are part of the HTML code standard. What the css does
is assign attributes to the <p> tag that replace the FONT tag specification
used in non-css pages.
The only time you might want both FONT tags and css styles is to accommodate
browsers that don't support css.
