design view and CSS

[Wayne]

Why is the design view so different from preview in FP 2003. I am using an
external stylesheet and design view picks up the right colours but not font
sizes. It show everything bigger than what it should be but is correct in
preview. This is a bit annoying as it throws out the whole page and I have
to keep previewing to make sure the desgin is correct. Is there a setting or
something I need to change?

And what about layers? FP just doesn't seem to handle these very well at all
and "what you see" in design view is definitely not what you get in preview.
Anyone had these problems?

Wayne,

That is an issue with design view and external style sheets. Design view is
not a full-fledged browser. There are some CSS elements that just won't
display correctly in Design view. It's something that I've learned to live
with. Then again, I don't use design view anymore, I manually do all my
coding.

I know it's a pain in the butt, but it's just the way it is.

This is a bit annoying as it throws out the whole page

What will happen when a user has his browser text size set to large?
Something to think about... Accessibility
