Can I get text to resize along with the table.

I have a table built that's width is based off of percentages not set values
and I want my text to adjust accordingly as well. Is this possible? and if
so what's the best way to go about it?

Your table is best with the percentages. When viewed in a browser, the table
cell widths will vary all over the place. You have no control over text
size. However, the size of the text will not change unless the person
viewing the site sets the browser's controls to see larger or smaller.

Your text will adjust accordingly - but only in so far as it will ~ for
example on a smaller screen , will wrap itself onto two lines,where the
original way you had it was perhaps all on one line, the actual text
size won't change, just the way it appears on the page,

if you set the text into a table and set the table to a fixed width
containing the text - then it'll stay that size whatever the size
screen viewed on - smaller screen less than the width of text/table..
will result in scroll bars , the choice is yuors as to which suits
best.

But if you want to resize the actual text accordingly - so it always
fits the screen without scroll bars - you'd want to look at making the
for example if it's a top header text banner type of thing - create it
as a swf "flash" file - now that CAN be made to resize according to
the screen it's being displayed on! ~ but means delving into "Flash".
hope that answers some of your question-s . :)
