Inherited Font Style

[acarur01]

Is it possible to set the font-style once in my CSS and have it propagated to the whole page? I've tried setting the body style but it does not get used by other elements such as menus.

body {
  font-family:Trebuchet MS,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
  color:#001155;
  background-color:#DCE4FF;
}

I want to do this instead of having to override every single style being used on the page

Unfortunately CSS styles do not cascade through <table>s and certain other elements, and there is no CSS layout construct that fully replaces tables (let alone browser support issues). So there is no real alternative to modifying the applicable styles.
