Does anyone else have trouble changing the fonts or font sizes in Safari 2.0 around here when posting? The tags appear in the little box that I use to write a new post but for some reason, they just disappear for me.

Example: this is meant to be size two but it appears as normal size for me.

Actually, it'd be very interesting to see if others can view this as Times New Roman too...

For the record, Safari 2.0 shows other poster's changes to fonts and sizes but not mine. It's really weird. :(

I'm using Safari 2.0 and I could see your change in font.


Edit:

And I could see my change of font just then.
 
I usually have to go to size=1 to get small text. Size=2 usually doesn't work and looks ordinary...

This is what your post looks like (normal/replying) to me:

I've not noticed any font-related issues in Safari... now, Entourage vs. Outlook for Windows, that's another story. (Short version: Outlook fonts OK, Entourage fonts screwed up when viewing the SAME message.)
 
Thanks for the replies people. I'm seeing the font change now. :confused:

But is my text small? I used to be able to use Size=2 quite well in the Safari 1.3 days.


Yay! It worked! Thanks everyone.
 
Do you have Safari Preferences -> Advanced -> Never use font sizes smaller than.... checked? I do, and some of the text that's supposed to be small for me isn't, but everything else is as expected -- big text, font changes, etc.

EDIT: No...I turned it off, no change. :confused:
 
Wait...so your size=2 text in your first post was not small for me. But your size=2 text in your later post, with the "Yay!" was small. And in a different font. Do you think the font has anything to do with it?
 
That was Size=1 in the later posts and the same font. Strange, isn't it. :confused:

1
2
3
4
5
6

Oh. So is Size=2 the default font then? :eek:

I'm just gonna go back to bed now...
