OK, I'm a web designer and stuff /ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif Some of the smallest details can screw things up. *shakes fist at.... something*
So... I'm just wondering, for people using IE as their browser, what size is your Text set to? (View> Text Size>)

1. Largest
2. Large
3. Medium
4. Small
5. Smallest

I think most people's will be set to Small or Medium... mine is Small itself. So how about yours?
If you're wondering why I'm asking this... it's so when I design a site, I'll make sure it shows up well with that text size, etc)

Thanks /ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif

You can set absolute or relative values for text on a web page, so if you don't want it to change set it up with a style sheet.

So add the following to your head:

<style type="text/css">
<!--
.myStyle { font-family: Verdana, Arial; font-size: 12px}
-->
</style>


and then you can format a paragraph simply by starting with a paragraph tag like this:

<p class="myStyle">

That paragraph's text will not change size when they switch their font size settings...
