Css Font sizes - Keep IE accessibility and control size

Filed under: Technology — admin @ 10:02 pm

So, i was hunting forever to allow IE users to change font size using their browser, and keep the site looking good in all browsers. Generally the easy way is to use a size of x-small for this. However, this does not work if that is not the size you want. So there is a 76% rule for body combine with a 1.0 em rule for tex tto help you control this… Very useful link example:

Escapade (9/11/03)

Filed under: My Poetry — admin @ 5:18 pm

Traveling away from what i hold dear,
hurts the heart and images reappear.

Visions of more than just the memories –
the smile, the hair, in the day’s cool breeze.

Imagination runs wild with the top down,
happiness and contempt beginning to drown.

I need to stay, remain still and go nowhere;
or else i will face insumountable despair.

I know the answer - but the prayer is this:
When i return - I will rejoice with a long kiss.
