Is there a way in css to clear all font-family + font-size style declarations?

css, font-face, html, php, styles

Solution

CSS:

span {
    font-family: initial !important;
    font-size: initial !important;
}

Problem

I have a page which is a cms/wysiwyg/ms word nightmare. It pulls many paragraphs of text from a database, some of which have retained ms word's bizarre html tags - including font declarations!!! ahh! In one sentence I can have things like: ``` <span style="font-family:Verdana">this is some</span> <span style="font-family:arial">ugly text!</span> ``` I was wondering if there is a way of removing all font-family and font-size styles so they will adapt the master stylesheet css? I'd prefer to not get into massive preg_replace conditions if I can avoid it. Thanks
