toolbar font combo box for HTML 4

  • We use the wprichedit control to edit HTML descriptions of products, people, etc.

    More and more we find that most of the font sizes embedded in HTML are set to absolute font sizes - e.g., 1 - 7, as opposed to being font sizes like 12, 24, etc. When the absoulte font sizes are loaded, wprichedit seems to find the closest match for font size (e.g., 2 will get set to font size 12 and similar). However, this then messes up the original HTML when any minor change is saved back (e.g., make changes to a word or sentence - the prior sentence in HTML has an absolute font size 3, the changed has font size 12, and the browsers show different size text for each).

    Is there a way to change the built in combo box for the wptoolbar to use absolute font sizes when in HTML mode or similar? Is there a better approach?

    Help is appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Charlie
