    Hello

    I have a site here

    http://www.bayingwolf.com/

    and the 14px text size is fine in IE10.

    However, in Safari on Windows the same text looks tiny. Do I need to use -webkit- or how else would Safari render the text size as IE does?

    Thanks

    Misinterpreted at first… and a second time.

    Safari on Windows

    So at max Safari 5…a dying browser no-one uses because Apple won’t update it.

    Check your target users browser statistics to see if this is an issue really worth worrying about.

    Quick google suggests checking your Safari preferences…

    One possibility is the setting in Safari-Preferences-Advanced tab “Universal access – never use font sizes smaller than….”

    The link in question has this

    body {
      font: 100%/1.5 'News Cycle';
    }
    

    You might try setting an explicit size as the browser will often use it’s own default size which is different for each browser if you don’t.

    That was the second thing I also posted (at first I didn’t realise it was about a discontinued desktop version of Safari). But TS seems to mean the smaller text p.cycle specifically which is a fixed 14px. Must be a setting on the computer itself then?
