Making Text Size The Same

A

andy1946

How can I make the text size the same when viewing my
webpage? For some reason, when one changes the text size
on his/her browser the text size on my webpage changes.
Is there an option to make the text size the same for any
text size option?

Thanks.

People change the text size in their browser so that they can read the text on a web site. Do you
really want to loose visitor if you leave them with no way to change the text size?

Thanks for the response.

Of course I don't want to lose visitors, but it is very
important for me to keep the same text size because the
format of the webpages change. Where can I make the text
size static?

Thanks.

It can be done by setting a pixel size using a CSS.

Here's an example place it in the head tags and edit the font family as desired.

<style type="text/css">
p, td, th, div{
font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; font-size: 14px;
font-family: "Comic Sans MS", sans-serif, Arial, Helvetica, Verdana;
}
<style>

Just make sure it's set large enough for people of the reading glasses crowd (
like me ) to read.

IE Users still have the ability to override font sizes implemented via CSS.

I can't on my hobby site .!! The only items that change are those overridden
with an inline style.

In IE, Tools | Internet Options | General tab | Accessibility, then enable the 3 Formatting options.

what works for me is typing the text in a Word document, cutting (or copying), then pasting onto the FrontPage document...I don't like doing this to my visitors but otherwise my borders and tables would be disproportionate
