I am re-designing my site and wondered :

How to disable the size of text changing on screens? I know people have it normal, small, larger, largest etc - I seen on another site that no matter what size u click the text always stays the default size, how do I do this?

Here is the site I seen it on, no matter what size you click the text to be, it just stays - http://www.tribesoft.com/profile/mission.asp

I look forward to any replies

I don't think you can, and in any case you don't want to.

By the way it's impolite to post the same question in two forums on the same site. If this can be done it's javascript and not html, so I'm posting my answer here. And my answer is I don't think it's doable. The browser does the font sizing, and the browser runs ( or chooses not to run ) scripts. If it's possible, there's a GreaseMonkey script to disable it.

It's impossible. Why? Like stated in another post that's something decided by a browser tool not you. And it could give pranksters something to do. Making the text too small or large to read and rendering it useless to change. Plus, it does take away the ability of people who have a hard time reading small text to resize the text to be able to read it so you're just turning away users by doing so. In conclusion. You can't, you don't want to, you're not supposed to, you don't need to.
