4. I replaced 14px with small in the top font declaration. IE should
allow font resizing now.
The first part of the center content includes the following text: "What
do you think of when you think Nintendo? It's ...." It's contained in
body -> div#body -> div#news -> div#feature -> div#navlinks p, to which
the following rules apply:
body, html {font-size: small;}
div#feature {font-size: 80%;}
div#feature p {font-size: 90%;}
Small equals approximately 88.75%, so the result due to the cascade is
the p text is 88.75% X 80% X 90%, or 63.9%. To the poor IE user already
requiring "larger" or "largest" text in the first place, you're making
it (unless a rare user who knows how to locate and select "ignore font
sizes specified on web pages") impossible to make comfortably large
enough to read if large enough to read at all:

Besides the undersized text problem, the CSS suffers from a rather
extreme case of what
http://developer.apple.com/internet/webcontent/bestwebdev.html describes
as "Classitis and Divitis".
There is no div#feature rule in any of my stylesheets. What you have is
actually:
div#feature p {font-size: 90%} (standard)
div#feature p {font-size: 80%} (contained in IE-only stylesheet; used
because IE makes text insanely large by default).
But since you're complaining, I boosted up the font size of the center
section. I'd make the menus larger too, except then IE'll start
breaking the layout due to it's invalid behavior involving width and height.
I also removed any classes/ids I didn't end up using in the design. I
originally put them in there in case I needed to target something
specific in the layout. As for the "div"-itis, if you check, I only
used as many divs as I needed to get the effect I want.
