Hey guys, is there anyway you can stop people from re sizing their text from their browser?
For example i have realised when you go to [http://www.msn.com/](http://www.msn.com/)
even if u go to your browser and select view\>larger text, it still remians the same!! Its a fixed size!
How do u achieve that?
Thanks

I believe these two methods work…
A) The FONT tag (\)
B) Use CSS to set font sizes
I know that method B works because i’ve used it (I :love: CSS), not entirely sure about method A, but worth a shot if you don’t feel like learning CSS.

I don’t think \<\*\*font\> works 🙂

Ok, then the CSS method it is… perhaps this will help you…
