i am trying to set a fixed html text size, so users cant adjust it...i have read some tutorials on the web, and believe by using CSS, that will fix the size...but i am on a mac, and it doesnt work...is CSS the best way to do this, and does it only work on PCs?...
thanks for the help....

What do you mean it "doesn't work on MAC?"
Are you using "px", "em" or "pt" for text size?
You want to use "px" for hard text size.
Of course, no matter what you use, I think there are small differences between MAC, Linux and Windows interpretation of font sizes in CSS.

Yes. I can resize NT in Mozilla on Linux.
Granted I have to go all the way to 150+% Text size to get it to resize.
I think browsers can and will be able to resize even hard "px" size no matter what.
The more standard compliant browsers become (like Safari - which is written using the KHTML engine from Unix/Linux's Konqueror) the less likely hard "px" size in CSS will stay the defined size.
