noob Q-target text font size

#1

Hi,
I hope this makes sense but when I add a link to text in design view and run
it in a browser the font size gets smaller and turns bold. How do I stop this.
Im currently using DW4 and have used a free template with default text. I
looked at the html code but cant see anything...is it something to do with the
CSS file and how do I change this. Any help appreciated

Show us the page, please. It undoubtedly has something to do with the CSS.

If I turn off the CSS styles it still adjusts the font size/bold. Where can I change the default settings for target text

Which text are you referring to? Could it be

Welcome to
R&D Acoustic Consultants website

Of so, it has noting to do with CSS--you are making it bold with the 
tags. I don't think size="2.5" is valid.

If it's some other text, which is it?

Hi,

Its the linked text that I am reffering too....please contact us

please feel free to <a href="Contact%20Us.htm">contact
us</a>. 


the font size should all be the same size but is not when you look at the page
in a browser

I found the CSS file attached with the template.

a.f:link {

font-family: tahoma;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
color: 88B547;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a.f:hover {

font-family: tahoma;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
color: #339CB2;
text-decoration: underline;
}
a.f:visited {

font-family: tahoma;
font-size: 10px;
font-weight: normal;
color: 88B547;
text-decoration: underline;

I had a play around and seen I can change the font settings for linked text.
Hopefully I can sort it from here...I didnt realise CSS files overide html code
and DW default settings.
