How to change the font style and size on the entire aspx page programatically

Guys,

I want the user to be able to select font (such as Bold, Italic,
underline) and stuff like that from a dropdown list) and then I wanna
apply these properties to all my page (all text). Now I'm doing
something like this:

string font = string.Empty;
switch(ddl2.Sel ectedItem.Text)
{
case "Bold":
font = Convert.ToStrin g(System.Drawin g.FontStyle.Bol d);

break;

case "Italic":
font = Convert.ToStrin g(System.Drawin g.FontStyle.Ita lic);
break;

}
myBody.Attribut es.Add("Font", font);
Session["theColor"] = font;

This worked for changing the color of the entire page as I hard coded
the colors hexa decimal values in the cases, but here these are enums,
and can only be compared.

Anyways does anyone has any input on this???? I want this to happen
when the user select from the DDL and on the button click event it
should change the font.

Thanks
Tina

How do I detect when the font size has been changed (especially by user action: either Ctrl+Scroll wheel or View/Text Size)? This is just for use on IE 5.5+, but it would be great if there was a generic solution. Thanks, Csaba Gabor from New York

I have a perl script that i use to render a html page. In that page i call out a stylesheet. If the user has a 800x600 display the fonts are really too big. Since screen resolution is a function of the client and I have this javascript ot detect the srecc size: function ck_res() { if ( (screen.width != 1024) && (screen.height != 768) ) {

Basic question, is this possible? I have managed to crib a javascript function that allows the user to increase or decrease the font size of a page. (see http://www.northamptontoday.co.uk/ViewArticle.aspx?SectionID=317&ArticleID=867063 for example. A+ A- in top right). A div id is used to apply the function to text within that id. My problem: I am working with a large intranet, all of the page

I have the item below at the top of my style sheet. And it seems that the font-szie is ignored. I know that my linked style sheet is being read, and used because if I remove the font-family line, the font changes. But it appears that no matter what I do with the font-size, it is ignored, and I cannot figure out why! Any clues? At the very bottom is the entire style sheet, just incase anyone comes accross something that they feel is...

I have a gridview that's being populated from an access db query. The problem I'm having is that the date/time fields in access that are populating the gridview are showing both date and time, when the field should only be showing one or the other (date or time). Even on the back end of the database where the column properties are, I have chosen the smallest date/time formats. When the aspx page runs, it shows the date and time (ie:in a...
