    Hi

    Lately I have been working on making my site behave the same with diffrent browsers, Mozilla, Opera, IE, Netscape. I found some problems but I have fixed all of them now - exept for two.

    How do I stop Mozilla, Netscape and Opera users from being able to resize the text in my site? In IE there is an option in the browser to display text smaller, smallest, medium..and so on.. But this is easy to stop by using exact pixelsizes for the text on the site (10px or 10pt instead of a relative number like for example 7)

    Is there a way to do the same with Mozilla, Netscape and Opera browsers - to force them to use the textsize I have decided? I want to disable textresizing for all browsers, not just for IE. The 10px thing does not work in Mozilla, Netscape and Opera - it is still possible to resize the text by choosing view/text-zoom and some zoom-rate.

    And I have one more question about nearly the same thing. The
    tag is reacting to the IE view/text-size by being bigger or smaller. This is annoying because with text-size=largest some textboxes I have are being placed with far too big spaces above and under.

    Is there a way to force the
    tag to always display at the same size?

    It would be great if someone has the answers [:)]
