Issue
I know that I have to use inline CSS to style anything in an HTML email, but I am noticing an odd override that is occuring in gmail. I am trying to change the color of the text in a table row:
<tr style='color: #000; font-size: 14px; font-family: Verdana, serif;'>
but when I open this email in gmail, the font-family and black color is being overwrote by gmail stylings. I'm seeing this via Firebug:
That purple color is being used instead of the black I want, and the font family is defaulting to arial,sans-serif. Does anyone know of a way to safely override the styling that gmail is forcing on me?
UPDATE
I changed the color to a non-black color, i.e. #212a2c and the color changed correctly, but the font-family is still stuck on arial.
Solution
It looks like you are styling the TR but gmail is over riding it with a style to the TD. When a TD and a TR conflict, the TD will win because it is the most immediate container...the closest match as per css3 rules. I think if you use inline style on your TD you will be able to over ride it.
