Using all in CSS: unset property values

The all property is one of the global keyword values in CSS. You can use it to reset all properties to the inherited or initial value:

Example
div {
    background-color: lightgreen;
    color: blue;
    all: inherit;
}

You can use it to make CSS remove style or attributes.

Note: CSS all does not affect unicode-bidi and direction properties.

CSS all: required syntax

To make CSS unset all property values, you need to follow the syntax below:

all: value;

You can define the value using one of the three possible options. You can find them in the table below.
