   Hi,

   I tried these to versions of code to make some font smaller.

   <h3>Obama fundraiser linked to loan program that aided Solyndra</h3>
   <p><FONT SIZE=2>By Matea Gold and Stuart Pfeifer, Los Angeles Times</FONT></p>
   <p><FONT SIZE=2>September 16, 2011</FONT></p>
   <p>The revelation is likely to spur new inquiries about the solar company's political influence. </p>
   <p>And separately, California lawmakers seek investigation of a state tax break the firm received.</p>

   <h3>Obama fundraiser linked to loan program that aided Solyndra</h3>
   <p><font size="-1"By Matea Gold and Stuart Pfeifer, Los Angeles Times</font></p>
   <p><font size="-1"September 16, 2011</font></p>
   <p>The revelation is likely to spur new inquiries about the solar company's political influence. </p>
   <p>And separately, California lawmakers seek investigation of a state tax break the firm received.</p>

   The first one didn't make the font smaller and the second one prevented the text from displaying at all.

   Any ideas would be much appreciated,

   Jane

   Thanks.

   I tried <p style="font-size:8pt;"> which resizes the font, but the lines need to be much closer together.

   Any ideas?

   Thanks,

   Jane

   i could not check the link to see what best to add/change - i get a 'malicious website blocked' warning from firefox/norton - i think you might already be aware of that.

   this is the detailed info:

   Threat Report

   Total threats found: 1

   Drive-By Downloads

   Threats found: 1
   Here is a complete list: (for more information about a specific threat, click on the Threat Name below)
   Threat Name: HTTP Malicious Cookie Activity
   Location: http://www.ourchangingglobe.com/would-tim-pawlenty-be-a-good-republican-presidential-candidate/

   as for your styling issue, look possibly into css line-height to add to the inline style http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_dim_line-height.asp

   the threat warnings are cleared from the site - no problem anymore in firefox/norton ;-)

   I will look into the styling, thank you.

   But take a look at this.

   You might want to turn off the Norton function that checks websites.

   It probably warns against many many websites that are problem free,
