I want to change all the fonts except those located here:

<!-- message -->
<div id="post_message_141">I like that font -- the one above showing the titles</div>
<!-- / message -->

ie within a post/message.

If I change it in Extra CSS Attributes under <td>, <th>, <p>, <li> (Customized in this Style) to only one font family everything changes including the messages/post.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Unless it's a global call, you can override the CSS settings within the <div> or even <span> tags. Since the <div> in your example has an ID you can add a class attribute such as:


<div id="post_message_141" class="msgfont">


And place the CSS in Main CSS "Additional CSS Definitions" as:


.msgfont {
font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial; /* or whatever font type you want */
}


Or


<div id="post_message_141" style="font-family:verdana, helvetica, arial">


See if that works.

(This auto edit double post thing sucks so I deleted what was previously written so what help I now need is not lost in the jungle...)

Ok so I have the following in CSS definitions:

.smallfont
{
font-family: comic sans ms;
}

And this affects:

<div>
<a href="forumdisplay.php?f=29"><strong>The Twitching Liver</strong></a>

</div>

<div class="smallfont">Reviews, opinions and disussions on bars, restaurants and clubs in the ROK</div>


</td>



Now with this:



<div class="smallfont" align="left">
<div style="clear:both">
<img class="inlineimg" src="images/icons/icon1.gif" alt="" border="0" />
<a href="showthread.php?goto=newpost&amp;t=23" title="Go to first unread post in thread 'testing'"><strong>testing</strong></a>
</div>



I want to have "testing" not be limited to just comic sans ms so I wrote:

.clear:both
{
font-family: verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
}

That did not work (you already know that).

Idea to do what I want to accomplish?
