Hi there,

I have inherited a site that uses a movie clip to load external text files. The font of this text renders correctly in all tested browsers except I.E. 5 on Mac platform--here it renders very small(unreadable) by comparison.

Is this a common problem?

The original developer of this site used two methods I am not-so familiar with:

1. The 'Twice-Cooked Method' (no embed tag-only object tag)for embedding Flash which is broken-down here...

2. The CSS for the text box has a font-size of 100%, not pixels, in the interest of allowing access for PDA's and hand-held devices, i believe.

Any ideas or suggestions will be much appreciated.

thanks,
