Re. http://horsemanureandbustickets.blogspot.com

I'm trying to get my blog looking how I want it before I go any futher with its contents, but there's a text size issue that's really bugging me.

If you follow the link at the top of this post, you will see two categories on the right-hand side ('FILM' and 'TV'). Please make a mental note of the text size for the link 'THE LIKELY LADS'. Now hit the link and observe how its size increases slightly when the linked page opens. I've been through my template code a dozen times, using the 'find on this page' tool to search for 'em' (em being the font size unit used for this particular template). All instances that apply to font size are now set at 0.8em, but still this link font is slightly bigger. How can this be? For obvious security reasons, I'm not going to give out my blogger log-in deatils, but I could post the template code here if it would help.

Thanks very much n advance.

It looks perfectly fine to me... did you fix the problem?

What browser were you using? Did you clear your cache after making the changes?

Personally I'm not a fan of the relative sizes there is always problems.. that's why I stick to set font point sizes...

Worked for me too.. must have been fixed before we saw it.

Good luck with your site, looks really nice.

Don't see a problem either - sure it's not the addition of the scrollbar that's playing with your head?
