Really doesn't look too bad except for the poll, but anyway, it looks
like the smallest font size is 8 pt. Perhaps Tim should change the
fonts to be declared in relative font sizes instead of absolute point
sizes. Tim:
use
TD { font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica;
font-size: 0.9em;
font-weight: normal; }
instead of
TD { font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica;
font-size: 10pt;
font-weight: normal; }
etc...That way, people who like larger font sizes will see larger sizes
automatically. BTW, the number preceding (em) is the amount to scale
the default size.
And James, there's usually a way to increase font sizes in your browser.
In Netscape in Windows, you can hit CTRL + ] to increase and CTRL + [ to
decrease the font size. In Mozilla, I have it set up to change the font
size with Shift + mouse scroll wheel.
