Yes, they've made the mistake of fixing the sizes of their blocks in pixels and specifying "overflow: hidden;", meaning the resized text won't fit. If you're using Firefox with a scroll wheel mouse, try holding down the Ctrl key and spinning the wheel; you should be able to get it to less than one word visible :-) This is typical of the problems thrown up by people thinking that they can treat a web page like a printed one. > I better spend more on learning how to allow for text changes in CSS. > Thank you once again for offering to help.
