I do not allow surfers to dictate text size.

CSS is a beautiful thing.

I generally do stuff for 800x600 so just keep checking at that rez and see what's readable? It's hard to say.

Yea gotta use the CSS nothing looks worse than a site with the text all blown outta the tables and overlapping because they don't have the font sizes locked down.

CCS, the only way to go... especially when the design needs specific table sizes...
