[r_pat72]

Hi,

I am trying to change the font size in IE7 of my page using
page-->Textsize--> larger,smaller etc..

But the font size remain the same. It doesn't change.

What could be the issue. Please help.

Thanks!

If your font size is set to either pixels or points, it will not change as these are fixed heights. You have to use either em's or percentages.

Browsers don't tend to recognize 'larger' and 'smaller'. They are in the CSS specifications, but have not been taken up by the browser makers. So use ems or %, as Marshall said.

Thanks..But my whole application css used px..do i have to change this to em completely or is there any alternative method?

do i have to change this to em completely

Yes. If you are using a central CSS file, just go in and change the px to em. 1em = about 14px.
