Navigator text size ?

Is there a way to know which size is the font of the browser a user is currently using ? (Normal, small, very small, big, huge)
I need this coz I made a report in an html document but if the user font is too big, it appears all messed up :(

Also, is there a way to send a mail byt SMTP via ASP ? Any suggestions ? :D

Of the top of my head, I don't know of any way.
However, if you just make your report using tables, or even the <PRE> (PREformatted, preserves spacing and such) tag might work, user font size shouldn't be a problem.
That's the idea behind things like tables, they create a universal formatting that everyone should be able to see

Your second question...no idea :confused: I don't use ASP or technologies like that

ok, thanks

I'm using tables but it looks awful if fonts are too big (int the table, making cells 3 times as high as they should)
Anyway, I guess i'm stuck with that...

And what is this <PRE> you're talking about ? Never used it, so how does it works ?

Thanks again for the reply csammis !

Oh and ignore my 2nd question, i solved it by making an activexdll to send the mail !

Why don't you use a style sheet (or at least a style tag) to describe the font size and attributes for the TD tags?

The font tags won't change it if the browser has font size preferences set. On the other hand, a table would change size automagically whatever the font size is and maintain alignment.

Ok; problem solved !
I used style sheet, as suggested, and it works perfect.

Thanks for everything !
(So much to learn in so less time) :D

Email out of asp.

Look at the CDO NT from microsoft that runs on the NT platform.

For information on this look at

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...asp?frame=true

or

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...do_roadmap.htm


Or search for CDO NT at microsoft.com


Usage Example

VB Code:

Dim objMail  
     
    Set objMail = Server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail") 
 
    ' send to address 
    objMail.To = Trim(strTo)      
     
    ' send from address 
    objMail.From = Trim(strFrom) 
     
    ' subject line 
    objMail.Subject = Trim(strSubject) 
     
    ' body 
    objMail.Body = Trim(strMessage) 
 
    ' send the email 
    objMail.Send  
     
    ' destroy to object 
    Set objMail = Nothing

i thought he was talking about font sizes?

Here is the original question posed. If you scroll to the top you will notice the 2nd paragraph.
