Marvin.
Go to your CSS file.
Find the declaration that reads:
body
{
font: 100%/1.4 "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif; <-- :: add
background: #fff;
}
Amend that declaration to read:
body
{
font: 100%/1.4 "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;
background: #fff;
}
Reply to the list. Not me. Thank you, Marvin.
Best,

I have a user styles sheet that sets the font-size on body (100%). It turns out that the sites that "think" they get it right for most users are the ones that look the weirdest. One I'm surprised to find in that batch is http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/ With "font-size:100%" one gets huge *and* tiny fonts on the same page. Imho, this goes against allowing users to browse the web the way *they* choose. -- Regards, Thierry | www.tjkdesign.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Firefox web developer reveals that it has a 13px for p tag, but I find it hard to read, perhaps the font is the cause. Mezzo Blue has 12px yet it's more readable. Font size in smaller percentage or pixel in body tag creates more problem for larger screen? Apple sold million copies of its new iMac, likely is just a drop in computer user pool, it does however brought to my attention to have to pay attention to these users. tee *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

There are a bunch of typos in there.
- Extra semi-colons,
- The :first-line and :first-letter pseudo-elements contain 2 "--"
- There is an extra "(" in the :lang() pseudo-class example.
Also, because of the "uniqueness" nature of ID, I'm not sure the example below
makes much sense (unless the author uses the same ID on various elements across
a site).
div#example{}
matches the element with the id attribute example, but only when it is a div
Things like that don't help people who are looking for basic tutorials because
if they come to learn the syntax we can't expect them to spot typos or bad
practice.
