| 123079 | 2003-02-24 07:16:00 | Yes, CSS gives specific hints to the browser as to how to display text. "View / Text Size" doesn't get to override CSS directives :) A quick way to try out CSS for a whole page is to put this in between your <head> and </head> directives: <style type="text/css"> body {font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 9px;} </style> This directs the 'default' font/size for the <body> section. (Any other <font> directives in the body section will override the default. :| |

| 123080 | 2003-02-24 08:01:00 | If you hadn't noticed Tim, you can see their entire CSS sheet here (www.ftw.net.nz). They are using 8pt font size, which I think is equivalent to '<font size="2">' or '<font size="-1">'. CSS is quite a bit better, though if you want to keep the text size the same regardless of the end users settings, you may find problems when people with different resolutions than what you design your site with will see it differently. And to ensure users have the font you are using, you could always provide a link to download it from, in a self extracting file or tell them to put it in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts, varying on their OS and hard drive configuration. | agent (30) | ||
