The > loss of colors? Hi Jim, It's designed to remove all formatting, so should be as close to Plain Jane HTML as possible. (For those that don't like pretty colours and like to dwell in the glory of the past). > Anyways, those buttons could be placed with > absolute positioning inside some <div> tags to prevent movement > when the margins of the page change. Yeah, I know about that, but just haven't done the changes to fix that particular style sheet... -- Darran (aka Chewy509) brought to you by Google Groups!

Hi Nathan, :) The thing is, as resolutions get higher even some of us with 20/20 vision need to increase the resolution on some sites just to make them readable. (Hint: Viewing 10pt text on a 19" CRT @ 1600x1200 is small even for those of us with 20/20 vision). Ability to adjust the font size dynamically should be a *requirement* for any modern website, plus it makes the site more accessible to a wider audience! ;) The way I see it, what's the point of having the information available if it's hard to find or even when you do find it, it's hard to read (whether that be through colour choice, font choice or just poor layout). -- Darran (aka Chewy509) brought to you by Google Groups! |
