So the text to be the same in both is more important than the content
and the visitors to be able to read the content?

You think changing font size in your browser is a major pain. What do
you think then the visitors think when they can't read the tiny text
and can't change the size even if they want to?

Think about what makes it so hard. Using Verdana can be one reason,
using a tiny font size may be an other. I have no problems make the
text look the same size in IE and Mozilla / Firefox.

Font size in percent (100% = browsers original size) as default, font
Arial or whatever most common (if any = leave it to the browser
default) but not Verdana, may make the efforts easier.

Note that I'm making an exeption when replying to your post. I'm doing
it of interest, but only once. So please bottompost and cut out what
you don't reply to, in the future.
