With Mozilla 1.7 Composer is it possible to turn off both Automatic CSS element and Font attributes for creating and editing a HTML document?

What do you mean by automatic attributes? Or do you mean that edits you make produce unexpected results, and if so, what?

If I turn on CSS styles Composer inserts inline CSS elements, if I turn off CSS styles Composer inserts HTML tag attributes like <font size="+3"><font face="verdana, arial">Some Text</font></font>.


Simply I would like the option to turn them both off.

Then how do you expect to be able to change the font?

You change the font in the CSS document, for example:

TD {
    font-family: Arial, Verdana, Serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    font-weight: 400;
    color: #000000;
       }

Now if you want to change the font name and color to all your table cells you edit the CSS elements to:

TD {
    font-family: "Times New Roman", Verdana, Serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    font-weight: 400;
    color: #0000FF;
       }

Instantly all "normal" table cells are changed to Times New Roman, and the color is changed.

This is a very simplified example, but you can expand this to include hyper link attributes, etc. Imagine if you had a site with 50 pages and your customer wanted to alter the font from Arial to Times New Roman, one edit in the CSS makes all the changes to all 50 pages.

Ah, then I guess you need the CasCadeS extension which I believe allows you to edit CSS style rules.
