Font sizes
-
Hi I have a problem with font sizes on my webpage. At the moment I'm using which shows fine on my browser, but way too small on others (all viewed on 1024 x 768 resolution). If I set the size to '2', the font is way too big on my browser, but OK on other browsers. And don't want fixed font sizes, so what is the best option? tx

I know this sounds obvious, but... have you checked the Text Size you are using on your own browser? (in the "View"/"Text Size"... menu in IE) It sounds as though your own browser is set to Text Size "Large" or "Larger". Another possible cause... are you using a non-standard font, which may be installed on your own system, but not on anyone else's? The font could be being substituted for one that displays "smaller" given the same font size. Hope this helps! -- JON -- Good Fast Cheap... (Pick two, you can't have all three!)

On my web pages, I tend to match the "normal" font size to that of the windows font. So I guess it doesn't matter what screen resolution other people are running because it would appear to be "normal" to them anyway. There will always be people that changed the fonts to the windows menus etc to what they want and as good a mind reader that I am, I just don't know what the user does with the fonts on their system. And I think at least if I set the fonts of the website similar to the standard system fonts then it would suit the majority of users.
