Webpage different appearances on different computers

| I thought that i had resolved the problem of my tables coming up differently
on different screens by having them set to 100 percent instead of values. But
on my husband's screen, something is different than on mine. It's almost like
his defalut browser font is bigger and things run onto the next line of the
table and also look big. is there a way to set the same kind of general rule
for fonts? can i put in my code for all computers to show my font size and
not be overridden....or have the font change only in accordance with the
table size (in proportion)?Hope this isn't too confusing. i am talking about
home page on www.imageworkspainting.com
Thanks to anyone for helping!

| Your font is set to <font face="Eras Medium ITC" size="5" color="#014E8B">
and this is an uncommon font. Try to pick some thing like Arial which is
availabe on most computers, other wise the browere will defualt to the
default font.

| You cannot fix the size of a font - you can only suggest the size.
Every browser has options to change the font size according to the users
requirements, and there is nothing you can do to stop this. (View->Text
Size in all browsers, though in IE you may have to use Tools->Internet
Options - General tab, click Accessibility button and play with the
options there).
Also, as Kent Grainger pointed out, if you use a font that is not
installed on the users PC, the browser will display its default font
(usually Times or Times New Roman).

| Thank you so much to both of you....I will take a look at both of those
things and see if i should just change the font I am using to be more
"friendly".
