Re: Is there a way to tell IE 5.x to switch font size?

Jay,

While others here can offer better suggestions, using px in the font
declaration in CSS seems, in my experience, to allow for font-changing via
IE. Others suggest using pt in the declaration, but my experience is that it
"locks" the size and doesn't allow changing, but is rendered more evenly
across browsers and platforms.

A URL to a page in question would help, too...

Subject: Is there a way to tell IE 5.x to switch font size?


| I have a site that uses CSS and looks generally good (in terms of font
| size anyway!) on "everything" except IE 5.x with default View,
| TextSize equal to "Smaller".  That seems to be IE's default setting
| ??  (It makes the site impossible to read.)
|
| Is there a way to tell IE 5.x to render the pages/site using a
| TextSize that is it's "Medium" setting -- as if the user had set
| his/her browser to TextSize equal to "Medium"??
|
| Thanks.
