How to change font size using CSS in Firefox

[Ebadaah]

hi friends,

In my website, I cannot change font settings using CSS when I open it in Mozilla Firefox. However, it allows me to perform all necessary font settings in Internet Explorer using CSS, it works quite nicely with IE. But in Firefox, it ignores the font size settings. How can I change font size using CSS in Firefox ?
Can anybody please provide necessary ideas or suggestions regarding this.... thanks

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) gives different results in different browsers even in different versions. Fonts appear smaller in Firefox than Internet Explorer. The ideal solution is to use Internet Explorer readable conditional comments which can be read only by IE, so make separate stylesheets for different browsers and then connect them accordingly.

Initially set an overall font-size for your site by defining a base font-size in the body tag of your css file. Then atleast the base size will be the same.

Browser sometimes behave weird. Because of browser weirdness, when you specify 100%, it is sometimes interpreted differently by different browsers, so in your style sheet use:
body {font-size:100.01%;}

Then you can define your font sizes for your page.
If you want to define all your <p> tags as a fixed size: p {font-size:11px;}
So for roughly 11pt font I'll define the <p> tag: p {font-size:0.76em;}

The important thing here is to define the base size in the css body, that way you get rid of some unpredictable cross-browser base sizes.
