    Default Links do not show up properly in FireFox or Explorer

    I am designing a website, [url]www.fiszerconcepts.com[/url] and the links within
    Dreamweaver and locally on my machine show up in 14pt. font size which is the
    size I wish for the links to be. The links I am referring to are "Purchase
    Books on Amazon", Listen to the 12/06 interview with Dr. Fiszer"...

    However, when I upload the files to my server and view the site in Firefox or
    Explorer the font size changes to 10pt. This is not what I want. What am I
    doing wrong?

    Default Re: Links do not show up properly in FireFox or Explorer

    Points are for print. Pixels, ems, ens, exs, percents, or font size names
    are what you need to use on the web.

    The appearance of HTML links is governed by CSS style rules specified by one
    of the four pseudo-classes: a:link, a:visited, a:hover, or a:active. In
    your stylesheet ([url]http://www.fiszerconcepts.com/styles.css[/url]) you have
    specified all of these to be 10px in size. And indeed, they are -

    a:link {
    font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    color: #333333;
    }

    a:visited {
    font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    color: #999999;
    }

    a:hover {
    font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    color: #FF3300;
    }

    a:active {
    font-family: Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size: 10px;
    color: #000000;
    }

    So - that's where you should focus your attention if you want to change
    their size.

    Also, you have built your page using layers as a primary methodology.
    Please open the page in Firefox, and increase the text size by a tick or two
    to see the problem with this methodology.
