I haven't found a way to consistently change fonts, but setting my color preferences under Edit/Preferences/Colors works for me. I check Use my chosen colors and uncheck Use system settings. However, I use a different background color and font color everywhere. It's easier on my eyes. :) There are very few pages where something won't show, and I have to change the settings to read. You could experiment with this, just checking to use your settings, because black is already set as the default font, and see what happens. bj ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I just looked at the aol.com main page again, and there is both blue text and black text. The blue text is all clickable links! And *should* be blue (the normal color of unvisited links). Nearly everything on the page is a link to something, but there is ordinary black text here and there. Unfortunately, AOL has added additional styling to *not* respect the standard color of visited links, which is purple. -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

I went to AOL after reading your message and see that it is basically
all links as you said, and it seems to me, Willard should be able to
change the link print to a color that pleases him more, if he set
them in the link color settings, under Edit/Preferences... and
uncheck the use system settings, shouldn't he?
He could, but whatever he picks is going to affect all web pages, not
just AOL. Maybe he picks to make a:link { color: black !important; }
and then goes to a page with a black background. Poof, no links.
I tend to just put up with whatever the author delivers. It's not going
to kill me. For my own web sites, I do assign link colors, the standard
values for unvisited, visited, hover and so forth.
Surely he doesn't want them in black too, but whatever he wants, that
should work, wouldn't it?
It should... nearly everything a web author does can be overridden --
if you know how. :-)
It gives me the colors I have set for general print fonts, and links.

That's true... and he probably wouldn't want to deal with that.

LOL... I'm not that smart. :)
I'm probably missing a lot in creativity, but I've set mine to a dark
background and lighter fonts, simply because it's easier on my eyes.
I'm on the computer a LOT, and most all sites work for me. :)
Guess Willard will just have to experiment some more, and see what he's
happy with, since he could change the colors of those links that he
objects to. ;)

I'd recommend the PrefBar extension for handling the colors. One click on the [X] Colors checkbox will remove all of the author's colors and go to black-on-white. There are other useful bits as well, of course. http://prefbar.mozdev.org/ As far as the font boldness goes, try pressing Control-Plus once or twice, enlarge and bold. Control-Minus reduces, Control-Zero returns to your default chosen size. Note on the View menu that you can zoom the entire page, or just the text.
