Hi ALL;
what i'am trying to do is make my asp pages coply to 508 standards. The problem is that I haven't been able to make the font of my input box, textarea, and select list boxes change size in the IE browser. I am useing the view /text size option in IE. I have try setting my style sheet to relative for both size and width. However, no matter how many times Icreate a styles sheet relative for font size and save then check in to project the font size always appears as specfic for font size , when i check it or open read only.

Is this a bug in ASP????

Is there a way around this so Ican change the size of textarea, select list fields in input boxes.

Any help would be apprecated!!!
Thanks
Dave
 
Hi,

I don't know if this will help you, but I have all my font sizes in CSS set to specific but without the actual size. view /text size option in IE works fine that way. If on the other hand I put in a specific size view /text size option in IE doesn't work any more. "Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure."

Hi Metka;

I final have the styles sheet working with relative for font size and save then check in to project the font size by choossen the option larger font and not set a particle font size. All my pages work in IE for ajusting font size ,

except area text fields asscociate with Input boxes and selection boxs. Is there a way to set input boxes
so the text font can be increase and decreased in the browser on that font.

Thanks
Dave
 

Hi Dave,

I'm sorry but I can't help you. :(
I never use relative font size.
If noone else answers, you can try posting your question in HTML and CSS forum, they are the experts. "Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure."
