trying to get text to be a fixed size on all browsers

this is my CSS code


p.menu
{
font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#333333;

position:absolute;
top:157px;
left:20px;
margin:0px;
}


works for IE, but FF still allows you to resize the text

This is an internet explorer bug. No browser should allow a page to set a font size that can't be controlled by the user.

If a user wants their fonts to be big they probably have a reason for it ;)

okay... but how about initially setting the size when you first load the page.. so if they're set to view text as large as it gets, then it will still show up how i set it. then they can change it from there.
