Re: [css-d] Can't Adjust Font Size

Hi Victor,

I have checked the same in my system.
Its working fine. Can you please check whether any other CSS inherit this
style?
Or else give !important like this

p {
font-size: 16px ! important;
}

Thanks,
Deepak Sam Victor G

 the
 Judith's Fancy neighborhood wherein lies the entrance to Salt River (the
 location of Columbuss landing). Northward, when conditions are right,
 profiles of the other US and British islands show on the horizon./p

 It doesn't matter to what value I change font-size, it remains the same!
 What do?
 TIA,

Well, I took out the javascript and even edited down the css file so that
there were no p.intro or p.introbox just a p declaration and I still
couldn't edit the latter to change the font size! What gives? You can take a
look at the current incarnation here:

I've figured it out!  You're changing it in the WRONG FILE!  When I went back 
to your original email, I realized that you were talking about text on the 
About Us page, not on the home page.  The size for the p declaration on 
about.htm is in caravelle_sub.css, NOT in caravelle.css.  That's why it's not 
applying it.

So, for future reference, when you send us a link to your site, send us the 
full link - page included.  Pages are different, and what's happening on one 
page may not be happening on another.

Probably a more specific selector that overrides the one you quote.
Use the Firebug extension in Firefox or the WebKit inspector in Safari/ 
Chromium to find it.

Or provide a clickable link to the offending page.

Have you tried stating the font size in ems or as a percentage, 
rather than in pixels?

Re: [css-d] Can't Adjust Font Size

2009-11-03 Thread Kerrin Hardy 

 Hi

I was wondering if your 'Increase / Decrease Font Size: - +' javascript is also 
influencing things.  May be try removing that temporarily.

Also, I noticed that your section 'Every room has: ' the font size does not 
change using the javascript but DOES change using the text zoom in firefox.  I 
think it would be worth at least eliminating it as part of the problem.

Cheers
Kerrin

 I tried changing to ems and %. It didn't change the size of the font

 however, it did make the text extend outside of the page limits,  
 which was
 interesting, so obviously it is being read and influencing the p

On line 38 of the stylesheet there is a more specific declaration for  
p.intro.

By the way, the design is pretty broken on Firefox 3.5 mac.
