Is any way of locking the font size (not using image) so if someone will come on the web site who has LARGE text size will see normal size. (becouse my tables starting moving and messing background) :(

And any way of preloading font on the web page??

I'am using PHP+mysql but I don't think it is important =/
Thank you in advance.
KanapsThere are three things that I need to point out here.

Firstly you shouldn't be using tables for layout as they are inaccessible to some users.
Secondly if your layout breaks when users use different font sizes then you need to redesign your layout.
Thirdly if you were to set the font-size at a specific size then partially sighted users who NEED bigger text won't be able to read your page properly.

The only browser that allows you to set the font at a specific size is IE, so even if you were to do that, your site would look like crap in all of the other browsers.

I suggest that you read this (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.alistapart.com/articles/elastic">http://www.alistapart.com/articles/elastic</a><!-- m -->) article.also a locked font size doesn't work in different res. It's either correct, too big, or tinyAnd what do you mean "preloading a font"? You can actually load a font onto a wweb design that a user does not have on his machine however it's a ridiculously complex and very unsupported undertaking. Microsoft has some info on their site about it but u have to Download some special app to do it, and on and on. I don't even know if the newest IE browser supports it anymore...Yes, WEFT still works in M$ Explorer though you have to do URL binding - but only a few insane people use M$ Explorer out of choice.Hm鍘
