H tags

h2 h3

Do you think it could cause problems to have all text on page alternate between H2 and H3

[satanclaus]

depends. As long as its not blatant spam then no. Some people find large text more pleasing to read.

H1, H2, H3 and etc. should be used for titles only. And paragraph text should be enclosed in P tag. If you just have titles on your page, it just seems not logical for me.

jsnow> You can find a lot more help with this issue in the html and css fora here on Webmaster World.

As a very quick and easy solution you need to be using something like this to control the size of your text:

<p style="font-size: 16px;">
My very large text here.
</p>

<p style="font-size: 14px;">
My large text here
</p>

Once you've mastered this technique, you can progress to using ems as your unit of measurement, but there's nothing wrong with starting out with pixels.

Don't use heading tags to force the text to become bigger - it makes a nonsense of your document.

Hi Ronan

Out of interest - why do you consider ems better than pixels?

[greenfrog]

are you planning on modifying the size of the text using css? There have been recent posts about google activity within css files.

Better accessibility. Even if you have pixels, fixed font size only with IE.

[drdsl2000]

you could do it. But I would recommend using .css for that situation so you can control the text size.

To be quite honest the reason I use H2 and H3 is for SEO purposes. It is restyled in the CSS, I think I'll change it to <p>
