Why does Internet Explorer show fonts in heavier weights than Firefox, and what
can I do about it, please ?
Pages which I've created, using {font-size: small; font-weight: normal;} in
imported style sheets appear as I want them in Firefox3, but when I check in
IE7
and IE6 the text appears much heavier (almost bold).
I've tried putting in a conditional comment for IE, linking to an alternative
style sheet:
<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../css/iehacks.css" />
<![endif]-->
with the style sheet having:
div#txtcol {font-size: small; font-weight: lighter;}
but it makes no difference. Perhaps IE doesn't support font-weight too well ?
(Other conditional formatting hacks do work OK for me)
I've looked at other sites in FF3 and IE7, and they seem to have solved the
problem. I just haven't worked it out yet, and would be grateful for help,
please.
