Maintaining text size

I've been able to get all the "hard" components of the page to work, but one small thing is driving me nuts. One cell (correct definition?) of the page allows the text size to be determined by the browser settings, while the rest of the text on the page stays at the intended size. Can someone tell me what to do? The page is: http://www.uswindshieldrepair.com/new%20web%20page%20design/catolog/buildakit.htm Thanks, Bill

Which cell is that? I'm able to alter all fonts on that page on my browser (Mozilla Firebird).

I would discourage you from using absolute font sizes in the first place -- your page ought to be flexible and accessible to people with disabilities and vision problems. Also, absolute sizes don't display uniformly over different clients and platforms. More: http://www.w3.org/2003/07/30-font-size

If you really must, it can be controlled using CSS with the units "px" and "pt".

Highly NOT recommened.
