well the way the snitz code is written the default that it uses in html is 2. but when you try to convert this to CSS then 2 is way to small so I was wondering if you could specify what size to make it like you do in the html. im not sure if this makes since, but i THINK i know what im talking about
As you've already found out it doesn't work, when I had a dynamic ASP script generating the CSS for my forum I simply put at the top of it strDefaultFontSize = 10 most of the rest of the info did come straight from the Applicaiton Variables that Snitz creates but that one I found easier to hard-code than fart around trying to get it to work.
why don't you just put 10 as the value for the defaultFontsize in your DB ?
HTML does not use explicit font sizes, it use a scale factor based based on a standard 10px font.
You should try to use px to define your fonts as they are screen related, whereas pt is a pont size and is related to an actual physical measurement which does not translate well when used across multiple platforms and browsers. Since 8pt equates to about 10.6 pixels on a standard monitor (96 dpi)
So HuwR, how would I go about changing my Snitz from pt to px? I currently have people logging in at 800x600, yet the forum is smade for 1024, so everything looks pretty big on the 800. Px would allow me to scale. Is there an option I'm missing somewhere? No CSS here, just the plain good "old" 3.4.03 .
