Client Browser default font in NS 4.7

[celia]

I have difficulties displaying my pages with the font I prescribed in my CSS on some client browsers where they have larger default font (in this case on NS 4.7). What can I do to overcome this? I tried a direct inline <font> tag on the page, and it didn’t work either…

Celia,

Which font are you using?

The browser shouldn't make a difference, but the OS will.

Post a link to the site and we'll have a look.

I used frame structure. A client default his font at 32 (he really likes them big and clear) and squeez the header frame down...so he couldn't see the links bar on the bottom in the header frame.

I have the <p class=title> set in CSS in font-size: 12pt.

Hmm... would you sugguest that I get rid of frame altogather?

thanks so much MeerKat!!

Celia,

Ok have had a look. It looks fine obviously as it is. (I'm on a Mac/IE5.2/NS6.2/NS4.08)

If the client wants that size as his default, let him.

I'd probably get rid of the 2 frame set-up, so the enlarged text will push the nav bar down but still making it visible.

One small thing:
I'm pretty sure your code should be:
<p class="title">
enclosing the class in inverted commas!

But this shouldn't affect your original challenge.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Maybe someone else will have a look.
