Searching for ancestors in medieval England can be fascinating. Extensive collections survive in English archives dating back to the Domesday Book (1086 A.D.). Medieval records most often record activities of nobility and the landed class. They are typically written in Latin or Old French, but modern English translations are available for many record groups. Searching for ancestors in medieval England can be fascinating.

Not only can we enlarge paragraphs, but we can enlarge headers as well. However to do that we need to substitute the equal signs for the header tag like so:

<h1 style= "font-size:20pt; "&gt;Enlarging Headers

Normal size of the default font is 10pt or 10 points. Let's say we want to increase the font to 12 points. To make the font larger you insert the attribute "font-size:12pt; " in the paragraph tag coding like so:

&lt;p style="font-size:12pt" &gt;.

Using only the #number for the font color in the code, as in the example above, does not work. You must use "color:#number" in order for the code to work. The correct code would be:
