MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / November 2004Text overlapping
Publisher 2002 URL www.willow-way.com When people change the font size in their browser it causes the text to overlap and in some cases makes the site un-readable. Is there a code fragment or CSS style that can be added to ignore the browser settings? > Publisher 2002 > URL www.willow-way.com > When people change the font size in their browser it causes the text to > overlap and in some cases makes the site un-readable. Is there a code > fragment or CSS style that can be added to ignore the browser settings? hmmm, did you code the text yourself? what service pack level are you at? If CSS is used and a pt size is applied to the text then the browser cannot modify that text, the text is locked to the CSS. If the font tag is used in lieu of CSS and the font size attribute is applied to the text then the browser controls the text by that size attributes number. The number is linked to the text sizing in the browser. Now 2002 uses CSS, I don't recall ever seeing the old-fashioned font tag in 2002 code. Yet when I view the source of your page I see the following: <font face="arial, helvetica" size="2" COLOR="#000000">You will find everything you need to complement your Soapmaking / Bodycare business and Willow Way's Custom Designed Equipment. I see the font tag and the font size attribute which is controled ultimately by the browser. But I see the CSS style sheet in the page, it's there, I don't see why it's not applied to that text. I just fired up a 2002 SP3 web page and could not reproduce it writing a font tag. Hence my inquiry as to if you wrote that in. David Bartosik - [MSFT MVP] www.publishermvps.com www.davidbartosik.com Yes, I did hand code the text in an effort to stop the problem. This site www.soapequipment.com and www.karmamusic.com have not been hand coded, but have same problem if someone changes the font in the browser. I'm using service pack SP3 > > Publisher 2002 > > URL www.willow-way.com [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > www.publishermvps.com > www.davidbartosik.com In your code just take out the font tag and use one of the font classes in the Publisher styles.

I went to a site I built and used no hand coding and it did not resize when I change the font www.awmlaw.com . So I think because I'm using some of my own coding inserting with the code fragment, I'm confusing the browser. I guess it's time to learn more about CSS. > > Publisher 2002 > > URL www.willow-way.com [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > www.publishermvps.com > www.davidbartosik.com try just taking out the font tag on the text. without that font tag I would think the text would format to the style that Publisher writes for the paragraph tag.
