CSS force "font-size: small;" to 13px

Question

Hello,

how can I force the attribute "small" to a specifically size? (ex: 13px)

I'm reading data from a db and I have to display tags like this:

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Text</span></p>

I can't modify these tags and works different in IE8 and FireFox so I want to force it.

Is it possible?

Thank you.

Answer 1

Will this work?

font-size: 13px;

Answer 2

Add a Standards mode <!DOCTYPE> to your document.

The font-size keywords are only implemented differently by IE in Quirks mode. Go to Standards mode and IE will behave the same as Firefox (and it fixes many other bugs too).
