    Default FONT SIZES IN EDIT MODE

    Just had my first look at contribute, and when i am in edit mode, some of the
    text appears so small on my screen its impossible to read, and therefor edit.
    Not all of the text does this, only parts of it, and when you click on it its
    the same size as all the rest, but you just can read it properly ?

    I'm searching these forums for the same reason. My website's text appears
    normally in the view mode of Contribute 3 for Windows, but upon clicking
    "Edit", the font size shrinks markedly -- making it impossible to make edits.
    (The same site works wonderfully in Contribute 2 for Mac, my other testing
    platform.)

    I'd appreciate you reporting back to this forum if you discover a solution.
    Thanks!

    We had that problem once. Text was normal in the browser and teeny tiny in edit
    mode. But changing our pages to use unicode and xhtml fixed it. We use the
    following now:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en-US" lang="en-US">
    ...
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

    with font-size of small for normal text and x-small for small text. xx-small
    renders smaller in edit mode than in the browser, but the bigger sizes are to
    scale in edit mode.


    Before we changed that, we were using a hack. Had all our css fonts a size
    larger than normal and called that stylesheet using "scripts/fonts1.css". Had
    fonts at normal size and called that with "/scripts/fonts2.css". Fonts2.css was
    listed second, so that it would be used by the browser. But Dreamweaver and
    Contribute used fonts1.css because they didn't understand the absolute path on
    the second stylesheet, so ignored it. Only worked on earlier versions, though.

    Thanks will try this, the head information that Go Live puts in is similar with
    the exception of below, so i have added this section. So do you know why
    contribute does this in simple terms, just really strange that it only does it
    to certain parts, would have thorought it would have done it to the whole page.

    xml:lang="en-US" lang="en-US">
    ...
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
