Font size for body not working in FP - 6/26/2003 10:32:55   
I am attempting my second site using CSS to control text (font, font size, hyperlink effects, etc.). I am attempting to specify the font and the size of the text. Ideally, when I create a new page, I want the font to default to Verdana, 10pt. It' s sticking with Verdana, but it' s coming up 12 pt. Here is the first line of the sheet:

normal {font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica;
font-size: 10pt}


Any ideas on what I am missing? I am also using a FP theme for the navigation buttons, etc.

Thanks for putting up with the CSS Village Idiot!

Normal is not a valid selector.

Use:

body,p {font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica;
font-size: 10pt}
