[Typo3] accessible font size?

It is *very* stupid!!  Just discovered this as I launched a website for a 
client who actually uses the AOL browser.  All my wonderfully scalable fonts 
were unreadable and I couldn't even tell her a convenient way to change them 
(you have to exit AOL, adjust IE text size settings, and then go back into 
AOL browser).  Actually, my client was glad to hear about this cause from 
AOL because she thought she was crazy when she wasn't able to us the UPS (or 
was it USPS) website because the font came up unreadable.  As more sites 
become accessible, it seems like AOL users are going to get more and more 
confused...

> CSS and java sounds like the answer I think....

I was worried about Java as not everyone has it installed.  But I wonder if 
that's not a problem with my main workaround AOL audience...

Still, I think that a server side solution through Typo3 could be an elegant 
solution that would work for everyone.  I could still use ems in my page 
layout.  And the user would have the choice of scaling through browser 
settings (for the educated) or through a link to the alternate page type 
structure (for the uneducated and those with backwards browsers).

I want to provide quality, accessible web services to this kind of clueless 
audience -- so I don't want to resort to the "you're using a stupid browser" 
approach.  AOL users who listen to me are likely to start working with 
another browser and then get frustrated because they don't know how to 
update Java plugins and all the rest...
