Text and Fonts in websites

[Dean M]

Hi. Is there a way set the font size and text so that all websites appear the same? I know I can use the keyboard for individual sites but in Internet Explorer you could choose this in IE options 'abilities'
Thanks. Dean M

I wouldn't rely on theuser to do this, if thats what you mean by using the IE options 'abilities' - that could affect your layout and functionality.

as far a setting font size i'm not sure - in my experience, that being i'm no web developer, using the css styles is the best option to set your font size for your site. saying that different browsers have different display sizes of say the using the small, medium, large method of options - better off using point sizes within the css styles.

hope that garble helps

You could make the website use CSS for content.
E.g. in Safari > preferences > advanced > stylesheet you could force it to use a CSS file of choice.
As long as you specify in the CSS file how you want the text etc to appear, the browser should respect that choice.

Thanks folks. I'll try the CSS thing.
I should have said that in IE under Internet Options the choice is 'accessbilites' which I think is for the handicapped.
I'm sure I can figure it out.....Ta Dean M.
