not supporting font-size tag with span element

FireFox ignores the font-size attribute in the following class used with a span element.
.keyConcept { color: #00A160; font-size: .7em; }

The color displays correctly but the font-size is ignored. I have tried several different iterations: font-size: 70%; font-size: 10px;

font-size is always ignored. Although IE displays this correctly.

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.

That should be working.

Make sure that you haven't set a minimum font size.

You can use the DOM Inspector to see if that rule is recognized.
