April 27, 200917 yr Hi guys, I'm building a website (not my design!) ) using CSS but the text in the header appears much larger in IE 7 than in safari or Firefox (on both mac and PC). I've set my page properties to be of medium size for the text, with the css stating text in the header to be set at 70% of that size. The thing is, the footer text has the same method applied and that looks fine in all browsers! Is there some kind of code that I can input to make it work in IE too? Or have I missed something completely? If you want to take a look, the URL is http://www.mharrisondesign.co.uk/tests/kid...ng_parties.html Yours confused...
April 27, 200917 yr Don't use small, medium, large etc for font sizing. Use an EM or % value instead.
April 28, 200917 yr Like Bluedreamer says, stick to ems or % for your font sizes, you will sometimes notice slight font size differences between IE, FF, Safari etc, as they use slightly different text rendering engines. Another option is to use IE conditional stylesheets, so you could set a font size for IE browsers, and in your main stylesheet a font size for FF, Safari etc browsers (as these seem to have more similar text rendering engines).
