My website http://www.laurenthelibrarian.com/ shows up the way I want it to in the Chrome browser, but appears much too large in the most recent version of Internet Explorer. When I view it in IE, the optimal page display is shown when I choose View/size/75% instead of 100%. Is there a way to insert a line of HTML that tells the page to display at 75% if being viewed from Internet Explorer?
Any compatibility tips would be useful! Thank you! |

I don't see any size difference in my IE versions (I only have IE9 and older). In which way is it larger --bigger font size or wider layout?
BTW in IE7 the top nav menu links ("About Lauren" etc) appear in front of the latest entry heading image. There are also quite a few validator errors: http://www.htmlhelp.com/cgi-bin/validate.c...elibrarian.com/ but if the page is generated by Wordpress these might be hard to fix. |

Some browsers remember zoom settings from session to session. Does the size return to normal when you use Ctrl-0 (that's control-zero)?

Also content size depends on users' display resolution (and also physical monitor size), so it's impossible to make a page look the same for everybody. See also http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/design.html#screen-size
