Finally,
We can list all Font Sizes, rather than the simple small, medium, large.

and, here's the complete list:

Large
Larger
Medium
Small
Smaller
X-Large
X-Small
XX-Large
XX-Small

If you tried to type "extrasmall" or "extra-small", it won't work.
You must use the simpler X-small for using very small words.
Or, X-large for using very large words.

So, the code will look something like this:
"font-size: xx-small; size="3"
or, the more complete:

or, font-size: x-small; font-size: small; font-size: large; etc. etc. etc.
