CSS - Font Size Working In Ff But Not Ie
Hi
I have applied this style to a drop down. However, the font size only appears at 10px in FF and not IE. Any ideas why? <option style="font-family: Verdana; background: #E0EAF8; font-size: 10px;" value="link">link text</option> Similar TutorialsHi there, I'm completely new to CSS. I'm trying to do this more than one hour but can't get it right. Code: <font color='white'><font size='1' face=verdana size=1> I couldn't find the equivalent of this in CSS This is my last experiment but it doesn't seem to work either Code: fontstyle { color : #FFFFFF; font-family : verdana ; font-size :1;}
Thanks So when using Netscape 7.2 & Opera 7.5 and MSIE 6.0, How do you get a simple tag like body { font-size:small; } to be equal in all browsers? Setting IE Text Size to Medium, and Opera's Zoom to 100% (both defaults) and Netscape 7.2 to 120% (not the default) is one way, but is there a CSS way? By the way, the child element hack "body>div {property}" wasn't working no matter what I tried, by not working I mean to say Netscape never would read it or apply it. It appeared to be that Opera & IE need to read the same value while Netscape needs to apply a larger size to be equal to IE's and Opera's rendering. B hi, someone using foxfire keeps saying the my font is really really tiny, I have my css file like:
Code: body { background: #FFFFFF;
/* for internet explorer */
scrollbar-face-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-highlight-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-shadow-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-3dlight-color: #494969; scrollbar-arrow-color: #494969; scrollbar-track-color: #FFFFFF; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: #494969;
margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; border-top: 1px solid #8E9397; border-left: 1px solid #8E9397; font-color: #494969; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica; font-size: 8pt; text-align: left; }
a:link,a:active,a:visited { color: #494969; text-decoration: none }
a:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #494969; position: relative; top: -1px; left: -1px; }
hr { background: transparent; color: #494969; height: 1px; border-width: 0px; }
fieldset { margin: 0; padding: 1px; border: 1px solid #494969; }
legend { margin: 0; padding: 7px; color: #494969; background: transparent; font-weight: bold; }
img { border: 0px; }
table { background: transparent; }
tr { background: transparent; }
td { background: transparent; color: #494969; font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica; font-size: 70%; }
input, textarea, select { color: #494969; font: normal 11px Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background: transparent; border: 1px solid #494969; border-style: inset; text-align: center; text-indent: 2px; }
form { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; }
any idea on whats wrong? and I would of changed the % to an actual value but I wanted to make it so people can control the size of the font to lager or smaller here is a preview with that css file in use : http://www.dbznetwork.net/ Well, the title might be a little oversimplified, but I guess it caught your attention In the past, I always set my font sizes using px. I know that this is not the appropriate standard (since it doesn't allow a user to re-size the font on their end), but I usually did it because it was easiest and most predictable. Now, I finally want to make the step towards more accessibility and I would like to learn a little bit more about using em's appropriately. Does anyone have any good advise on how to get started with the following questions: How/where do I set the initial font-size, from which I can use em's? What are the dangers of using em's instead of px? Where could this change impact my usual styling? Are there any good resources/tutorials about this? Any help/suggestions/ideas are appreciated... Hello, I have something has follows: <div> ... <table> ... </table> </div> My document font size is 1em. My div font size is 1.4em. What should be the font-size in my table to get back to the 1em of the document? Thanks, Miguel People viewing my site at 120 dpi are seeing misaligned text and layout, whereas people viewing the site at 96dpi can see it properly. I'm using "em" instead of pixels when setting font sizes in CSS. The site has fixed length and width, do I HAVE to allow it to resize itself? Whats the best way to fix font size? I use CSS. The font size seems to stay fix on IE but not on Mozilla and Netscape. Also I notice when I use adgui font it stay fix no matter in what browser and no matter at what text view. Why is that. Are there more of this kinda fonts? Bottom line, whats the best way to fix the size of fonts regardless of browser and at what text view. Thanks for you help Liz Hello all. THis is my first post here . I use em to define font-size at my site. At main css file... body { font-size: 76%; } tr, p, div, td, div { font-size: 1em; } at secondary css file... div#content_area .contentpaneopen { font-size: 1.1em ; line-height: 1.3em; } The problem is that the text (content_area) displays correctly on firefox and Opera and wrong on IE. I need em because i use a auto font resize javascript file.I am trying to find what is wrong for days...! please check at this link... I am sorry about the greek encoding Thank you I have a style.css file included on all pages i want to sent default font and size, for all the text where i haven't already set something Hi I'm using a css file for the layout of my website. But I'd like to define the default font size but I can't! I mean the size of the font that's under no special style. I think it's something like: Code: .body
{ font-size: 10px; }
Or similar (instead of 10px, small)... anybody knows exactly hoy can I do it? I need to shrink the fonts for the following classes on blogspot: post-body date-header but for some reason it refuses to shrink below 100% or 1em Even in firebug, adding properties to element.style, the font refuses to shrink below 100%. Even when i switch off all inherited values for font values it refuses. It does however grow to any size larger than 100%. Other elements' fonts do shrink to any value, it is only these (and possibly others) that do not shrink. blogspot in question is http://secretfarts.blogspot.com Any ideas? What is the best way to make compatble text size between browser? I have a div with a width of 300px, I pasted some text in it, it appears identical with firefox, chrome and safari (the letters are the exact same place), but when it comes to IE 8 (probably 6/7 too), the text is not displayed at the same place. I've read several books such as Dan Cederholms, "Web standard solutions" and Eric Meyers on CSS, but I've yet to come across anything that delves into the specifics between declaring font-size attributes of px, %, em . I've always kind of used px for my sites, but I've seen some sites that use percentages and others that use em. What are the best uses for each one? How exactly does the % and em know what size to be? FYI: I didn't mention 'pt' because I do in fact know the purpose of it for printing web documents. Feel free to discuss or even post a great link that covers everything. Thanks! Is there any way to limit how large a font can become in firefox and internet explorer? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled Document</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> <style type="text/css"> <!-- div.print { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 2pt; font-style: normal; line-height: normal; font-weight: normal; font-variant: normal; text-transform: none; color: #FF3300; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; } div.regular{ font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif; font-size: larger; font-style: normal; line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; font-variant: normal; text-transform: none; color:#006600; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; text-decoration: underline; } --> </style> <script language="JavaScript"> function printerFriendly() { document.getElementById('div1').className = 'print'; } </script> </head> <body> <p><a href="javascriptrinterFriendly()">click here to change font</a></p> <div id="div1" class="regular"> <table id="tab1" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1"> <tr> <td>bla</td> <td>kla</td> <td>sal</td> <td>kdef</td> </tr> <tr> <td>iuwhdfqower</td> <td>ouresgopu</td> <td>uihwdrfpu</td> <td>uiwrhgfpuieroi</td> </tr> <tr> <td>oiiudefpuiwerv</td> <td>iufdgpiuwqerpoi</td> <td>iuergpuergipou</td> <td> </td> </tr> </table> <p class="print"> </p> </div> </body> </html> why is the font size not changing nor the color?? only the font changes when th link is clicked??

Thanks! built a drop down using array... i did it this way so if they omit another item in page, the county they selected will reappear..but how do i change the font size of the county names in the array....they appear in such small print???? had posted in php forum, but someone suggested posting here... PHP Code: <table width="100%"> <? if( ($msgcounty == "e") && (isset($_POST['submit'])) ) {?> <tr> <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#ff0000"><b>County: </b></font> <? } else { ?> <tr> <td><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2" color="#000000"><b>County: </b></font> <? } ?> <? $county = array (1 => 'county', 'Adams County', 'Allen County', 'Wells County', 'White County', 'Whitley'); foreach ($county as $key => $value) { if ($countyselecter==$value) { $optionselected = "selected"; }else{ $optionselected = ""; } $selectcnty.= "<option value=\"$value\" ".$optionselected."> $value</option>\n";} ?><select name="countyselecter"> <? echo $selectcnty; ?> </select> </td> </tr> </table> I have set up a test for several basic CSS-layouts, like 3-column layout, frame-like layout/behaviour etc. and I noticed some strange behaviour in IE. Here is a number of layouts that I have created: http://www.duwgati.nl/csstest In layout samples 1 - 4 the fonts show up smaller than in the samples 5 -7, even though the font-size declaration is identical in all 7 samples. This only happens in IE, in Mozilla/Firefox, the fontsizes are correct in all 7 samples. Anybody got a clue why this is happening? |
