Maybe IE5 is somehow not reading your CSS. How and where did you set the font-size?

I assume this is in tables? If so then add this to your CSS:

table, th, td { font-size: 100%; }

Thanks Robin_reala, that worked a treat, I think because the way the site is put together the eliments that are in tables where not being picked up fromt he css in IE5, your little bit of code did the trick.
I am now happy to say the site now works in firefox and IE5 ( a few issues with ie5 but hey who uses that any how )

my lernig curve, work using fire fox it is easyer but hey tehre is nothing like jumping in the deepend to learn how to swim

thanks everyone for all your help on this I hope I will be able to answer other questions on this forum in the future.
