How to make font bigger with html / css?

I have this html:

 <div class="a"><font size="40"><font 
color="black">A</font></font></div>

The thing is, I can't make the font-size bigger. No matter what I do, it just stays at a certain size. If I increase 40 to 50, for example, it makes no difference.

I then tried:

.a {font-size: 50px;}

Nothing.

As of HTML5, the Font-tag is deprecated. Instead you should style all of your elements with css:

<div class="a"> A </div>

<style>
.a {
  font-size: 40px;
  color: black;
}
</style>

font tag supports "size" attribute to be a number between 1 to 7 you could use the custom css on font tag with "style" attribute like

<font style="font-size:40px;">A</font>

or you could remove the font tag and apply the style attribute to div tag

<div style="font-size:40px;">A</div>

The <font> tag is no longer supported and does not work in HTML5. Remove it and set the style in the <style> tag in the <head> or in the linked stylesheet:

<style>
 .a {
    font-size: 40px;
    color: black;
 }
</style>

Alternatively, set the style directly on the element inline:

<div style="font-size: 40px; color: black">A</div>

You should use CSS style for div tag :-

    <div style="font-size:50px; color: black;">A</div>
