Browser Text Size Override

[bigtimemw]

When designing web pages I always design the layout with the text size set in the browser (ie) as medium. However if the viewer has his/her text set to a larger text setting than medium in their browser it throws the whole pag elayout out of wack because the tables are not sized to fit larger text. I was wondering if there is any sort of scripting or html code available to override the browser text settign so that the text stays one size at all times even if the user tries to change their browser text setting. thanks for the help!!!!

There are a number of points here

1) text size is set by the browser to allow accessibility. Some users require larger text. These people will not thank you for setting a font size.

2) You shouldn't use tables for layout anyway.

3) However, If you must
<p style="font-size:12px;">text</p>

or

<style type="text/css"><!--BODY (text-size:12px;}--></style>

to do the entire page
