Well my new business site is ready to publish in all respects besides one minor/major thing. The text resizer won?t work, but FINALLY I?ve found the reason why, but not a solution.

The last client site I developed included a text-resizer that I?ve simply copied and pasted into this site:

http://www.users.on.net/~nicoleoz

and over the last few weeks I?ve been baffled as to why it was working then suddenly didn?t work.

In my new site I have the first line of CSS reading:

html body { background: #778888 url('../images/box8.jpg') repeat-y top center; text-align: center; font-size: 100.01%; }

The font-size 100.01% is the reason as the CSS for each of the text-resizers reads:

Body { font-size: 115% } etc.

On another forum I posted an issue I was having with IE dropping the right floated content below the left floated menu no matter what I tried to stop that happening, and one of the contributors suggested that changing font-size to 100.01% in the CSS has worked for her every time, and it solved my problem incredibly, but at the same time it?s rendered the text-resizers useless and up until now the cause of the text sizing not working was a total mystery.

So, given that I should try and keep her suggestion to stop IE moving my page around when text is resized using the IE browsers text sizing options, does anyone have any idea how I can get my text resizer working again?

Ugh!

That wasn't the problem as I've just realised I used the same 100.01% thing on the clients site too.

In that case if anyone can understand why the text-resizer is not working on my site and IS working on the site listed at the top of my portfolio (click the image on the portfolio page and select the link at the very bottom of the next page "visit the XXX Ophthalmology site) I'd be very appreciative.

p.s. gosh, I thought for a while there I'd found the reason! G.T.'s sadlook smiley
