Accept it? It may come as a surprise to you, but to many people the
ability to control font size in their browser is a blessing. Don't try to
set a fixed font at all.
BTW: you might rethink your use of #Opagetitle. It looks to me like you
really want that bit of text to be the main heading in your page. For that
you should use h1.
