When you tried using html, did you check the edit html box?

Or if you're using Internet Explorer, click View -> Font Size (or something similar)... and see if it's checked to "Normal". If not, do so.

^ x2 If you're using a Mac, ignore that statement. I blieve it's a link stating "View HTML" which makes a pop-up showing your entry as it will look.
&for Firefox it's View -> Text Size -> Normal, Mozilla is a little different with View -> Text Zoom -> 100%.

Of course I did

I don't see "normal" only smallest... all the way to largest.

Medium. It needs to be set to medium.

it's been medium since the beginning. Hmm i wonder if it's because of the css i used for my layouts, I don't know, I went back and looked over and over again many times fixing this and that but it won't work.

When you click edit HTML, type in this instead:

CODE

<FONT size=20pt>TEXT HERE</FONT>

Try and see if it works or not.

change "pt" to "px" and try again. Also make the number smaller a bit.

no luck inside the blog edit entry, the font's big like how it's supposed to, but outside, it's small like usual

Can you give us a link to your xanga ... at least ?

[tru3luv316]

My Xanga

[threepointone]

you're right--it's something in your CSS:

find this:

CODE

font,td,p,xmp{color:#DF2080;
font-face: trebuchet ms;
font-weight:normal;
font-size:8pt;
text-align:classify;}

and change it to this:

CODE

td,p,xmp{color:#DF2080;
font-face: trebuchet ms;
font-weight:normal;
font-size:8pt;
text-align:classify;}

you won't have to go through any of that edit html nonsense, either--the xanga font size editor should work fine
