Hi there.

http://www.helpdeskics.com/

in the blue menu and footer font size in Opera is less than in other
browsers. Why ? I don't know how can I set correct font size for Opera.

Asking us to debug such convoluted code shows that you have no respect
for our time.

You have no less than 32 font-size rules in your stylesheet, far far to
many, delete the current stylesheet, learn about css inheritance and
start again.

Is convoluted ? I don't think so. IMHO is very simple.

I know what is it inheritance, but I see that I haven't any chance to
use it. Many styles are different, so I have to use many font-size. I
can not use one the same font-size for all classes. That's why I use
different font-size for every different class.

Try preferences (you can open the prefs by pressing alt-p).

Which version of Opera? Which other browsers? What are the
font-settings in all the browsers you've tested with?

You've used percentages to size the font, so surely you're expecting
different browsers with different default settings to display the font
at different sizes?

My copy of Opera 7.54 has the default font-size set to 14px and the
minimum font-size set to 12px. So the text in the footer displays at
12px
In IE6 with the default font-size set to the standard 16px and no
minimum font-size the text in the footer is way too small to read
comfortably.

Simple question... which is better to use for defining font sizes and why? px and em seem to be the leading candidates. I know what the general answer is going to be, but I'm hoping to ultimately get some good real world examples. Fire away! :) Regards, Peter Foti

I've been setting font-size 1em; as the default in my style sheets. Until now, that seemed to be ok. But now I'm beginning to wonder. My aim is to have an easily readable, but not overly large text when the user uses the default font size in his browser and uses the typical display resolution. I did a reinstall of my friendly browser in a different environment, and I am surprised to find that its default for serif is Times 16 and

I am playing with setting font sizes in CSS using em as unit of measurement. All seems to be fine. Even Netscape Navigator shows the characters very similar to IE, what is not the kind if px is used! But! when selecting the "Larger" or "Smaller" command from the menubar in IE, font sizes increases from normal (1em) to, say, 6em or so _in the first step_!!! In the next step it seems to be 20em or say. Choosing "Smaller" makes the text...

What I'd like to do is to be able to set the font of a textarea element to the same font that another element is using (say, for example, an <INPUT type=text ...> element, but if that's a no go, then a generic element's font will do OK, too. What's the correct way to do this, please (so that it will also work for IE 6)? The motivation for this is that I have some text on the screen and I want to insert a textarea element between the...

Hi guys What's the best way to specify font size using CSS? I try to avoid absolute units like pt and px because then users can't resize the fonts in IE, but % and em are a complete pain to use IMO. I read somewhere (a W3C tip I think) that the best way is to specify a "base" size and then have all your fonts relative that, but I'm not sure how that works. TIA
