Bigger Font Size

[otiz]

A member gave me this script to change my description text font

<span class="actxxsmall">NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTDESCRIPTION</span>

and it looks much better. I would like to make the text a bit bigger,
what can i change in this script to do this?

Thanks

Hi,

You can change the class style to one of the following:

actxxsmall - smallest font size
actxsmall
actsmall
actregular
actlarge
actxlarge
actxxlarge - largest font size

Therefore, to make it slightly bigger use:

<span class="actxsmall">NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTDESCRIPTION</span>

I hope this helps.

Is it also possible to change the font style?

Hi,

Yes, just put <FONT> and </FONT> tags around the relevant bits, i.e.

<span class="actxsmall"><FONT FACE="arial">NETQUOTEVAR:PRODUCTDESCRIPTION</FONT></span>

Alternatively, you could specify the font type in the style sheet so it will affect every part of the site using the 'class' specified. To do this go to the 'Advanced' menu and select 'Template Manager'. Click on the 'Miscellaneous' tab (click 'Change View' if you do not see the tabs). Then click on the 'CSS Files' button. This will list all available stylesheets for the site. The main one is called Actinic.css. Open this in a text editor and look for:

.actxsmall{font-size:x-small;color:NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS;}

add the family tag so it looks like:

.actxsmall{font-size:x-small;color:NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS; family:arial}

Do this for all the styles that you want to change the font type in.

Change 'arial' to the font style that you want

Hi Paul,

Check under 'Design | Options | Site Defaults'. You should have 'ACTSCSSFONTFAMILY' in the properties list and if 'Verdana' is contained in the 'value' field then it (or a very similar font) is being used.
