The font size in the table look okay in Opera and Firefox, however they appear a bit large in IE6. But the text outside the table is fine.

I checked the stylesheet but couldn't find what's wrong in it.

#content { ...font:9pt/13pt tahoma, georgia, serif;... }
table { ... }
th { ... }
td { ... }
form, label { font: 9pt Arial, sans-serif; }
form table { ... }
form th { ...font:bold 8pt Arial, sans-serif;... }
form td { ...font:8pt Verdana, sans-serif;... }

Hmmm, the only time I've had differences between FF and IE in CSS font size is when using relative sizes like "x-small". FF renders that in approximately HTML size 1 (7pt) while IE uses size 2 (10pt).

Looks like you've defined #content as the properties of a DIV which contains a table. Some browsers lose part of the font settings inside the table in cases like that. Try changing the #content thing to a class and apply it to both the div and the table, like:

.content { font settings }
DIV CLASS="content"
TABLE CLASS="content"

Other ideas:

I'm not familiar with the "9pt/13pt" syntax. What's that supposed to accomplish? Coudl FF be reading the 9pt part while IE reads the 13? Does it help if you remove the "/13pt" ?

Maybe try separating the general "font" style into its components "font-family", "font-size" and "font-weight" ?

That's right, thanks! It seems IE forgot the #content properties even though the table is inside div. So I added color & font properties into the table & td to solve the problem. I didn't add them before because I thought I'd save some space.

Not sure myself, only I think it makes the text look less crammed.

The 2nd part is for the line-height - font-size/line-height

Dont use pt to do font sizes unless it is for printing.

Pt size definition is for printers not screens.

For font sizes on your screen use px and em.
