CSS question about "font-family'
Hi all...


I get this warning when I try to validate a CSS page...

Code:
Line : 0 font-family: You are encouraged to offer a generic family as a last alternative



So my question is how does one add the generic font....


If I have.....

body {
font-family : tahoma, serif, helvetica, san-serif;
background-color : #ffffff;
margin : 0;
}

Where would I put the generic family, because I thought I already have it! I tried to do it many ways and searched but I did not find the answer, so I am still confused! Any help would be great!


TIA

F!

Thanks Again.....
