Breaking browsers
Gaaaah!
If you can read this, well done. If the page looks particularly blank or just wrong, that's because I appear to be very talented - whilst trying to write something into my stylesheet that would display fonts the right size in different browsers using font size keywords (eg small) I seem to have broken every browser except for IE (and you didn't think it could be done, did you?) Of course, I didn't know this since at school I only have access to IE.
So when I got home and witnessed the devastation, I downloaded the new stylesheet that I'd uploaded at school (inadvertently overwriting the old version on my computer, but that's another story), rewrote it to be the same as the previous version, and, stunningly (you'll love this part) managed to break IE but no other browsers. And then I altered the width of my Reading content box by 20px, and then all the browsers broke.
Ahem.
So, we're going back to fixed font sizes for the time being, until I can figure out how to change it without breaking something. This could take a while.
