How do I stop hyperliks from expandng

Yorkie

The hyperlinks on my web pages expand and move everything on the page. Is
there any way to stop this?

Hi Yorkie,

A hyperlink can be a single character to an entire phrase so the post does not make sense. May we have a URL to view it?

Thanks for your reply Mike. The URL is dragonfly3d.co.uk/ the main offending links are the ones on the webring panels.

Fix your hover pseudo-class -

A:hover {
FONT-SIZE: 12pt;
COLOR: #ff0000;
FONT-FAMILY: Square721 BT;
LETTER-SPACING: 1pt;
TEXT-DECORATION: underline
}

You are telling the page to increase the size of the font to 12 pt (a print
metric that shouldn't be used on the web), and in addition you are telling
it to use a font face that only you will see properly.

You know how to fix those?

Murray, FP lets me choose 12pt and that's what I'm familiar with from word
processing. So I don't understand your comment about print metric. What is
correct?

Cheers, Sue

FP is wrong to force you to use points. You should use CSS to size your
text in pixels, percents, ems, ens, exs, or font size names, but not in
points.

I've noticed that the problem only occurs on the index page. Don't know if this has any significance.

Thank you Murray, and Yorkie for asking the original question. I would never
have discovered this if not for you two.
Cheers, Sue
