    Hi!

    I feel stupid even asking this question but I'm stumped. Please come to my rescue!

    The font-size for the body of my document is set at 76%.

    p at 95%
    h1 at 130%
    h2 at 115%
    you get the drift...

    I also have a table within a page (for tabular data!) and the text contained inside the td or th tags appears abnormally large in IE6.
    I styled the font-size on all td's.. IE6 still giving me trouble. Even if I reduce font-size to 76% in my IE6-specific stylesheet it appears larger than it ought to be.

    What am I forgetting to do? Thanks!

    How did you style the font-size on td, as a percentage? The Html and CSS would help

    body {font-size: 76%;}
    p, td, th {font-size: 98%;}

    but I was able to make things appear consistent by making the td and th font-size 70% in the IE6-specific stylesheet.

    I just don't know if that's the best way of going about it.

    thanks!

    Since I can't see the html, I am going to have to say that if your hack is working, stick with it. You might have an extra div around the table for all I know or there could be something in your stylesheet that you are not seeing. I have a hard time giving advice when I can't see what I am talking about. If you put a link to a public version of the page, let me know.
    Thanks
