Cancel a CSS declaration

Question

Is it possible to have a CSS rule which basically \"undoes\" a prior rule?

An example:

    some text more text ot         


        

Answer 1

I too had this question but after I glanced at the other answers it hit me,

    body {
        color : initial;
    }

IE doesn't support this currently and Gecko requires a -moz-initial I believe..

    body {
        color : unset;
    }

This one isn't quite as supported right now. I just thought I'd share my answer to this for anyone else who thinks about this.
