font size different in different browsers


newbie

Anonymous

Has anyone ever noticed a font size difference in geeklog when using different browsers? I use firefox and the fonts are large enough to read but if i use IE the fonts are so small you cant even read what you type. For me personally its not a problem since i use firefox or netscape but a few people using IE have pointed it out to me. Any idea why? or is there a way to change it, i just checked and this forum does the same thing in IE.

There are lot of factors involved here - different default font sizes in the various browsers, and implementation details between them. I thought you could even change the resolution in Firefox but can't find it now (maybe that was an option in Mozilla / SeaMonkey). And when you change platforms (to a Mac or Linux), things look different again.

The web isn't WYSIWYG. Never was, never will be ...
