I have been banging my head against the wall trying to figure out how conditional regexes work.

I have looked at http://rexegg.com/regex-conditionals.html to figure it out, but no luck so far. My understanding of regexes has not advanced enough that I can put this level of regexes together.

I want to have a conditional regex that says:

if "font-size: 1.0em;" then leave it as it is.
if font-size is anything else, then change it to font-size: xyz;

And I want to do the same for the font-family: xyz;

If possible, it should also work in text files, not just stylesheets, in case I find the occasional statement like:
<span style="font-size: 1.0em">XXXXX</span>

I would appreciate it if someone could help me with such a conditional regex.
