I'm using Mozilla in Red Hat 9. The fonts are different size at each web site. Some are good size, yet others are to small. I have it set to over ride the web site fonts and use mine but it seems it's not working very good.

Also, on my File, Edit, View, etc... munu is really small. I can hardly read the drop down menus from it.
How do I get the fonts worked out if it doesn't change? Thank you, Chris.


P.S. My Tabed Browsing is checked, but it's not working. I thought Mozilla was a little better then this.

I see that too at times for the Linux version. The simple answer can be found at the Mozilla FAQ:

http://www.mozilla.org/docs/web-developer/faq.html

Go down to the heading:

"Why isn’t Mozilla rendering my page as I intended? So my page isn’t standards-compliant, but good browsers should render pages as the author intended anyway!"

It provides a reasonable explanation, IMO, of why standards should be observed. Typically, it's the deviations that can cause problems. If you've ever played around with FrontPage, you'll likely know what I mean.

In the meantime, try Firefox. I think it's a little more pliable (at least on a WinXP box).

Thank you. I did install firefox today. I really like it. I got Thundbird also. I use the two on my windows boot.
