I tried changing the font by using the below code but it didn’t work. Any ideas?

#commentform { font: Calibri;}

Try to use one of these fonts: http://www.ampsoft.net/webdesign-l/WindowsMacFonts.html

Ok – I changed it to but it looks like #commentform changes the font for the word “Comment” but not for the text inside the box.

Try this CSS:
```
#commentform,
.comment-form-author input,
.comment-form-email input,
.comment-form-url input {
 font-family: Lucida Console;
}
```

I see the font change when I change the font in this CSS. But it only changes the font for the word “Comment”. When I type something into the comment box, that is still unchanged.

#commentform,
.comment-form-author input,
.comment-form-email input,
.comment-form-url input {
font-family: Comic Sans MS;
}
