Changing font size globally? 4

[Sleidia]

Hi guys,

How can I change the font size globally on every element of a whole site with one single font-size statement?

body { font-size: 10pt; } doesn't have any effect on text within tables.

Thus I need to declare it twice like this :

body { font-size: 10pt; } 
td { font-size: 10pt; }

So, what's the catch?

Thanks for the help

Oh dear...think I'll stay out of that one!

I salute your great idea ahaha

Do you at least indent and use hard returns Sleidia?

I like things readable and well ordered. So yeah, of course.

No offence intended but good luck with that shovel and the hole you are digging

No offence taken but you know, it's very presomptuous to think that there is only one way to do things.

I do the things the way I want and, as always, there are people who are unhappy with it.

Of course, I'm always happy to take help, ideas and opinions from others, but in the end, it's me who decides to do what I think is the best for me.

As I said, I will follow the rules when all the browsers follow the same rules. That's it.

They do... if you use a proper doctype.

I am not presuming there is only a single way to do something. I already said that I think it's fine to use tables. On the contrary, it's presumptious to assume that if something isn't working the way you expect it should work then it's somehow broken or flawed.

If you use Doctypes, properly structured HTML documents (the way they were meant to be used) and CSS it would work fine.

You aren't doing that so you are hitting problems and so dismissing CSS as being impractical. No great shakes, just my observations.

Sorry but that's a lie.
Even IE7 isn't as css compliant as it should be.

Anyway, I'll stop arguing in this thread from now because it goes strictly nowhere and my goal isn't to convince anyone anyway.
