In what order does css picks the alternative font what if all the specified fonts are available

In that particular case, when fonts are in the same line, applies the first, if it doesn't exist or something goes wrong, uses the one that follows and so.

Sorry for the confusion, I misunderstood your question

Answer 2

Answer 3

@noname you reply is contradicting the lesson, below is the explanation that made me concluded at my answer

the example was if i specified a group arial, helvetica neue, helvetica

If the browser does not support the font Arial, it tries the next fonts (Helvetica Neue, then Helvetica). If the browser doesn't have any of them, it will try the generic sans-serif.

now am confused as to who is correct, would experiment n reply back

Answer 6

Css always picks the last attribute applied, if any of those has the !important argument, picks that one. If there's more than one important argument always picks the last one applied.

Answer 7

Both answers give the same result, if css picks the first, then the next and so on, it always ends up using the last one you applied: here, I made you this example
