It will be great if any one helps me in sizing fonts in browser!!!
Ok, the _best_ advice is: don't.
(In due time, you will learn how to do some relative sizing in
a useful way. But the fact that you asked the way you did
indicates that you're not ready for such advanced issues yet.)

Maybe you used a browser version that has some default protection
against the most clueless settings on pages, like trying to make
font size idiotically small. What should a browser do with
font-size: 1px?

I need a solution that will work in IE,Netscape,Mozilla etc....
No you don't. You need to start learning HTML authoring for the World

style type='text/html'
.FontType {font-family:arial; font-size:8px; color:red}
/style
You _really_ don't know the difference between HTML and CSS, do you?

Your attempted technique is CSS, hence off-topic here, and you're using
it all wrong, hence you should do some homework. Here's one suggestion:
