Fix text size in Netscape

[myatia]

Hi,

I want to fix the size of some of my text in Netscape 6 so that even if the user sets the text size larger, the text remains the same size. In IE, I can set the size in pixels in stylesheet, and that fixes the text. Anyone know how to do this?

Netscape 6 also supports style sheets. However, I'm not certain that you can override a change in text size by the user. There's always a better way...

Yeah, setting the text size in pixels in a stylesheet doesn't work for Netscape. I'd really like to fix certain elements like the text in a text box because when the font size is made larger, the text becomes too big to fit in the box (the box's height is defined in pixels and stays fixed).

Netscape frustrates me so much...

what is the word on Netscape anyway?

is it 100% HTML-Compliant?

is it 100% CSS-Compliant?

it seems like i test webpages all the time, and they come up acceptably in Opera, Mozilla, and IE. it's always netscape that not only looks way different, but has changes in functionality that sometimes cripple the page.
