This should be simple: I want to change the font size of my pages' content.

This is on the style sheet:
body {
font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
margin: 0;
}

No matter what value I declare for font-size, there is no change of the font in the body of the page.

What am I missing?

if the text is in a <p> or a <td> you may want to define them instead.

Hi -
Sometimes it's nice to just set properties of fonts in your container div or other divs on the page. I've started using just font-size:100% in the outer div - so that the brower the user's got is in control from the getgo; then change later ones as needed - they'll all be based on that parent.

Good luck,
El
