I am trying to make the fonts larger that are very small.
If you look at the top of the page the header links are small. If you click on the My Account link the lines like "View or change my account information." are very small.
If you click the links to the DLYC dock & room the text for the fees and slips wait list are also very small.
I have been able to increase the others headers in the CSS but can not seem to adjust these.

In your stulesheet.css look for, and change to your likes
#navMainWarapper {font-size: 1em}

Also add the following to the stylesheet.css

.productListing {font-size: 1.5em}

.content {font-size: 1.5em}

Change 1.5em to your likes.

[stevesh]

The font-size in #navMainWrapper is set to 1em. You could increase that to, say 1.3em.

And something like this for the My Account:

#accountDefault ul li {font-size: 1.5em;}



For future reference, install the Firefox browser and the Web Developer plugin for Firefox. You can use those to see where in the stylesheet you change the styling of the various page elements.

Ctrl-Shift-Y will allow you to hover over a section of the page and see the class and id names for that section in the box at the top. The statements in the stylesheet that begin with # are id's and the ones that begin with dots are classes.

Ctrl-Shift-E will open the CSS editor and allow you to edit the stylesheet and see the changes in real time without changing anything permanently. An essential tool.

Some prefer Firebug, which does much the same thing.

(If you're using Firefox 4-10, you'll need to remap the editor shortcut, since Firefox has appropriated Ctrl-Shift-E for an internal function - I use Ctrl-Shift-Q.)

HI, This worked great for part of it. IF you still click the link for "My Account" the text is still very small their. Where would I change these lines? Was also looking where I would change the HOME link in the footer bar. Thanks

[maperr55]

HI Stevesh,
How you been ? Well I hope. I will give these changes a shot and see what developes. Will update shortly.

Hi Stevesh & keneso,
Both of your suggestions worked to a degree.
I was able to fix some of them but still have some very small text.
Was unable to find any thing saying
#accountDefault ul li {font-size: 1.5em;}
IF you click on my account you see that
"•View or change my account information." is still very small.
The bottom of the page link "HOME" is very small.
IF you click on the link of the boat in the classifieds the text is small their also.
I have to use a bi-focal to read and these are just to hard to read for someone that has them or problems reading small print.
Thanks again for the help
Mark

All I can access now is the login/create account page

Anyhow try ading font-size to the following

for the "create account/forgot password"
#navEZPagesTOC ul li a {font-size: 1.5em;}

for the
"Create a member profile with Devils Lake Yacht Club which allows you to check your account, track member news, Check the Member Classifieds"
.information {font-size: 1.5em;}

for the "* Required information"
.alert {font-size: 1.5em;}

for the home link in footer
#navSupp ul {font-size: 1.5em;}

Also last night I noticed when you clikcked on the fees/rooms the text was small as well thus I had suggested to add font-size to .productListing {font-size: 1.5em;} as well

DISCLAIMER it can affect other parts of the site, please check.

p.s. sorry, but I'll be on the road for couple weeks, hence won't be able to post, but stevesh is much more experienced than I am anyway.

Some rules aren't in the stylesheet by default, including the one I referenced, so you have to add them. I usually put them at the bottom.

Hi keneso & stevesh,
Thanks you both for your input & help. Sorry about the access to the site. I have to shut it off when I'm not monitoring it while it is open. Every time I leave it open for even the shortest time, someone will come along and create them self an account to login with. This cart is for members only so they have access to members only services and a protect login to their account statements. You still have to have your ID and password to access that but this way the information and IP is not open to the public. I will turn it back on till I leave this evening.
Keneso I will give your insertions a try and report the results.
stevesh, Thank you. Telling me that there might not be a default rule on the page for an entry just made things so much clearer. I thought there had to be one for everything displayed on the page. I was driving my self nuts looking all over for the reference you had made. Just kept thinking how can I be missing it. Because it is not their. LOL
It is also good to know I can just add them at the bottom and they will have the desired effect.
Thanks again both of you for your help.
Should have been the Spartans playing last night....

Should have been the Spartans playing last night....

True, but unfortunately, they would have lost to Kentucky, too.
