right now the foum uses something like the <FONT size> attribute. That gives mixed output sizes across different web browsers. Also, it limits the smallest size font on a post to "1", or roughly 7pt on Internet Explorer. I mean a control to set the font size to sizes like 8pt, 2pt, 14pt, etc

guys,

what cal is talking about is that there are two types of html font properties:

- points
- size

they are not the same

the font property "pt" is more precise and allows for smaller, incremental increases in thes size of the font while the font property "size" is less so
