HTML | DOM Style font Property

Read

Discuss

The HTML DOM Style’s font property is used to change the element’s font properties. It can be used to change the font style, weight, size, and family.

Syntax:

To set the font style :

node.style.font = "font-properties font-size font-family;"

To get the current font style:

node.style.font;

Return Values: It returns a string value, which represents different font properties of the element

Property value: It is a string which has values like font properties, font size, and font family. The properties are required in the following order :

Font style
Font variant
Font weight
Font size
Font height
Font family

Approach: We have a paragraph element with and ID of text. We created a function in JavaScript that takes in a string value in variable gfg as a parameter and sets the ‘text‘ ID element’s style.font property to ‘gfg‘. We call this function from the buttons, and supply property values appropriately.

Example:

html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
 
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>HTML DOM | Style font property</title>
</head>
 
<body>
    <p id='text'>Welcome to GeeksForGeeks</p>
   
    <button onclick=
            "changeFont('italic 20px arial')">
      Italic, Arial, 20px
  </button>
   
    <button onclick=
            "changeFont('bold 26px serif')">
      Bold, Serif, 26px
  </button>
   
    <button onclick=
            "changeFont('italic bold 30px Montserrat')">
      Italic, Montserrat, 20px
  </button>
   
    <button onclick="changeFont('900 34px hack')">
      Weight 900, Hack, 34px
  </button>
 
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function changeFont(gfg) {
           
            //  Get font style.
            document.getElementById(
              'text').style.font = gfg;
        }
    </script>
 
</body>
 
</html>
