Web Site Making: The Font Size Should Be Selected By Web Users

by danuk on July 27, 2010

Briefly: the Small text peace off users extremely decelerating performance of the task put before it. For a browser of Internet Explorer 4 it was fine design which allowed users to change the sizes of fonts on page. Let’s struggle for that this good design find has returned to users in following generation of browsers.

Sometimes technological progress becomes a two-edged sword. Sometimes it turns out that the best technology appears the worst for its users. Web is not an exception. For examples frames, possibility of changing of color of a scrollbar, and possibility of scrolling of the text can be.

Other such example of harmful Web-technology I consider possibility to set in lists of styles the size of the text to within pixel. Unfortunately set of designers use this possibility and by that in Web the number of sites which it is inconvenient to read increases.

The present article I start campaign for that Microsoft in the browser has given the chance to users to reassign a font size set on any Web-page by the web designer.

When the browser for the first time loads page, it can quite display its font of that size as it has been conceived by the designer. But possibility with ease should be given to users to increase the text size without dependence that speaks the list of styles. After all eventually, it is my screen; it is my computer and my program, means they should do what I tell.

Certainly some web browsers have a function allowing users to create the own list of styles. It certainly is good. For sophisticated users. But 99 % of users simply wish to increase the text size on page if it is difficult to read it. The browser iCab, released only for Macintosh, gives the chance to users. So let’s make Internet Explorer same friendly in relation to users.

And so, let’s clarify to begin with why so it is difficult to read the most part of web sites? There are two versions:

* the Majority of designers are young men. For them fine sight. The small text it not in burden, unlike those who has stepped over a threshold of 40 years. Designers also as a rule work on expensive high-quality screen monitors which do not tire eyes.

* At creation of web sites designers do not read the information on page. They simply dart at its glance for a moment to be convinced that the text has lain down in page correctly. Sometimes the most part of designs surrenders with the text instead of the real text which on page will be.

As too many sites select an incorrect font size for the text, users as a rule should change it. The first versions of Internet Explorer supported this necessity. They on the toolbar had two buttons: one to increase a font size, and another – to reduce. So it also should be.

Today the online technologies are very popular. The Internet network is not only a place to entertain but also a platform to earn money. Whatever the reason is, to be presented in the Internet one needs a site. And this is when the question how to make a website arises. Those who are searching for details on how to build a website, are advised to refer to the Internet itself. It is full of tutorials on how to make a website and respective topics.

In any way, it wouldn’t be wise not to take advantage of this chance provided to us by digital technologies. Google and other search engines, social networks and forums, blogs – all of them could help to find information on “where to make a website” and similar topics.
