I'm curious, a recent design i did is screwy in text sizes larger than medium...any way to make the text an absolute size?

i think most surfers dont even know about the IE option though.

Just use style sheets...

e.g.
.text { font-size: 12px }

Yep, you can always use the style tag.

[STYLE][!--
BODY,TD {font-size:10pt}
--][/STYLE]

replace the ] and [ with > and <

YEah...css...uhm...I figured that out about 3 minutes after posting this...and I feel mildly retarded...

I thought that font size="4" wasn't affected by ie's setting, just when you have dreamweaver style font size="+1". Is that wrong, do you have to use style sheets?

Ummm...

"Smaller"

which oddly isn't on your list.

CSS is the only way to do it with text.
Use absolute/fixed font sizes in style sheets.
Othewise your text can be fucked up in the user's browser.
