padding: 0;
border: none;
background: white;

Applying font-type to the text in body
body {

}
The browser tries to implement first Times New Roman ,if this font-type is not available with user system then sans-serif and at last Verdana .Times New Roman is double quoted as it consists of spaces .
body {
color: #800080;
font-family:"Times New Roman", sans-serif,Verdana;
font-size: 75%;
}
