With the Modify Style dialog box, you can modify the classes defined in the STYLE tag of the current page. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. In Folders view, open the page that you want to change.
  2. In Page view, right-click the page, and then click Page Properties.
  3. In the Page Properties dialog box, click Style.

MORE INFORMATION

You can override the style attributes defined in a style sheet by using the Modify Style dialog box on the page for which you want to change the style.

For example, if you want the entire web to have a certain font, such as 10 point Verdana, but you want one page to have the font of 10 point Arial, you can use the Modify Style dialog box to define 10 point Arial for that particular page.
