Can someone please check my HTML?

Question

I cant seem to locate the problem in my HTML. The page looks fine in Firefox, but in IE the text font gets huge. I cannot for the life of me locate the tag thats causing this problem.

Any help would truly be appreciated! Thank you so much!

Answer 1

Remove the first

Answer 2

Note that IE is notorious for assuming 1 font-size larger than (Firefox+Opera) if you specify font-size as ems or percent. If you want granular control cross-browser, use px. Use the same to specify differences between, say, h1, h2, h3, h4, etc. (That is, DO NOT use comparative phrases such as "larger" or "smaller" etc.) ...Of course, keep in mind that, by doing so, you will be robbing the page-viewer's ability to adjust the page's font-size by using the browser's View--> Text-size option!

Answer 3

IE defaults the font size to your body and h3 size. You have all your sizes as percentages. I would suggest actually putting a pixel size to each element in your css.

Answer 4

in your css, instead of "font-size: small;" you might want to experiment with something like "font-size: 2px;" or "font-size: 8px;" and then make it bigger or smaller. Just experiment until it looks right to you.

Answer 5

Specify your font size....
body {
margin:0;
padding:0;
font-family: Georgia, Times, Times New Roman, sans-serif;
font-size: small;
text-align:center;
------------------------------- add this
color:#29303B;
line-height:1.3;
background:#483521 url("http://www.shirtees.net/red-gold.gif") repeat;
}

Answer 6

haha, Sometimes it doesn't work. Its not your coding, its the way the internet browser is being viewed in. In Internet Explorer, There is a Text changing Thingy in the >VIEW file. click this to make the test Bigger, or smaller.

Answer 7

It seems ok on IE-7.

Answer 8

worked for me. But in IE the words are all jacked up. and all over each other.
