Font Size Problems

[bdunndchi]

I use Dreamweaver to design my webpages, and throughout the last few years I have had some people complain that all the text is jumbled on the pages. This is always fixed by them just changing the text size back to medium in their browser. But I am wondering if it is my page that is somehow changing their browser's selected text size to large, or is that something that doesn't have anything to do with me. And if it is not my website's fault, why would the other sites be showing up fine on their computers, but mine does not.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

What's the url?

One good tip to use is always specify a font size attribute in the body{} of your css document. This will stop the ability to resize the text through the browser, although this can lead to some accessibility issues not being able to increase or decrease text size.

I had a look at your site and everything looks normal, I think.
The text looks smaller (maybe you've just set the font size to 8pt?)
I'm using IE7.

You can also try this in your css file:

'// declare a default font-size
body {...font-size: 9pt;....}

'// override that size in the specified tags
span.ContentText {...font-size: 10pt;....}

This should do it!

Use css to change your font. It will be same to all different browsers that the users are using.
