Hey guys,
ive been building on a website for the last couple of days, but ive run into some problems! i hope you good guys can help me ..
ive been a little bit lazy on the css part, so i made a body tag, that would apply to the whole website, or at least so i thought. anyhow here's the css file:

body {
 margin:0px;
 font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
 font-size:11px;
}
a {
 text-decoration:none;
 color:#000000;
}
img {
 border-style:none;
}
.tag_cloud { 
  padding: 3px; text-decoration:none; 
}

it works all fine with mozilla, but with ie, the body tag dosent seem to work. has anyone had this problem before and knows a way to get around it? (without adding h1,h2,p (...) tags instead (i have some unformatted text, which i would have to use the <font> tag on then, and that would be terribly strenuous )).
One more thing, dosent ie support transparency on png files?? i hate ie

ps. i could post the link to my website so you can see what i mean, but i dont know if torrent files are considered legal on this board?

Which part of the body tag doesn't work in which version of IE?

No, IE doesn't support transparent png files. They may have fixed it in IE7 - not sure right now.

hi, thanks for your reply
the font seems to work and probably the margin too, it's the size that is far bigger than the one on mozilla. if i would use the smallest text size with the ie browser, i would have the same as the standard with mozilla..
im using ie 6, dont know how it would look like with another version.

EDIT: no, actually the smallest text size isn't even enough, i would have to make it one px smaller for that or something ..

First of all, don't use px for font sizing, IE users cannot scale the text to suit their own preferences. Better to use em or %. I usually set my font size as 100.1% on the body, then resize as I need to in my rules. Generally, 100% = 16px.

Second, what is your text sizing set to in IE ? Under the View, Text Size ?? "medium" is the default.

Along with margin: 0 on the body, you should also add padding: 0.

hi and thanks for your reply too just a quick reply before i go running. my size in ie is set to normal or medium (dont have the english version ), if i would change it to smallest, the text would still be too large. ill test using em or % instead when i come back

ok, i tested both em and %, but still the same results!!; works fine on ff but not on ie . any more ideas?

Have you got a URL or can we see the rest of the code ??
