in thread Setting font size for reading nodes

the visible root node is in a td of class main_content.

the replies are in table tags inside that same td.

This CSS will do the trick
td.main_content, td.main_content table { font-size: 14px; }

    I presume your code goes into an external style sheet rather than "On-Site CSS Markup"?

    Do you know whether th On-Site code or the external stylesheet will take precedence?

      I'd say it would depend on how the browser loads the css (?)

      AFAIK, CSS is processed linearly, so if an entry appears twice, the last one will overwrite the previous ones. Since here the link for the external css is above the onsite markup, I would assume that the onsite markup should overwrite any of the external settings.

      Of course, this is all just guessing, so don't quote me on that.

      you can test this by setting certain values in both an external file and the onsite css and see who's got final word.

        I tried that, Chady, but there is something about external CSS files that I haven't gotten right yet, so I couldn't make the determination. I'll get back to it when I have more time. Thanks for your input!
