    Default main page font size

    Hi, hope you can help....
    I'm new to this and have been struggling by myself to get a website up and running.

    I would like to change the font size of the text on my main page to a larger font and can't remember how I did it....i've had some time off recently.

    The text is written in define_pages_editor and linked to an ez-page. not sure if this is the right way to do it but it seems to work.

    the url is www.snow-kit.com/shop

    If you want to increase the size of all the fonts, you can change the font-size in the body element in your stylesheet

    If you just want to change the font in the center column, find .centerColumn in your stylesheet and change the font-size part.

    You may have to separate it from the other elements, if you don't want other changes.

    If you search the stylesheet for 'font-size' you'll see all the places it's set now.

    Stevesh, many thanks. I have made the changes and now most of the pages are ok but my contact page seems to exceed the width of the page on the right hand side of the centerColumn and the text seems to be a different size to the main pages.

    Any idea how I can control this?

    Not sure about the different font size, but you can make the text box smaller here in your stylesheet:

    TEXTAREA {
    /* float: left;*/
    margin: auto;
    display: block;
    width: 664px;
    }

    Yes, I've already tried that but it doesn't seem to control the contact us page. The text is written in define_pages but all I have written here is our URL.

    Is the width of that page driven by the width of the comment field? if it is, can I change this somewhere?

    Bingo, I've just tried it again and it worked.... I must have not updated the css properly.

    Just one issue left - where do I reduce the text size in these forms?
