Are you using a style sheet?
If so, are you dynamically adding the style sheet to the page?

Try applying a style to your page to fix the problem.
If you don't know how to use CSS, w3c is a great resource to learn how to use it.

thanx for the suggestion...bu t i dont want to use style sheets right now and keep my application as simple as possible. i dont think such a problem should surface when style sheets are not in use. am i doing something wrong or is it possible that something could be wrong with my software?

There could be a number of reasons for this...
It could be your browser settings... it could be that you are displaying text in a Label in one area and in a Localize in another and your browser treats them differently.

To make sure that your page is displayed the same all the time you should use css...it's as simple as: <asp:Label id="myLabel" runat="server" style="font-size:12px"></asp:Label>

....Does your text keep enlarging every time you post back??

The text size increases with the first postback. Then it remains large even after subsequent postbacks. The size does not increase further.

Please post your ASP code responsible for displaying your text.

Try removing the Font-Names property from the labels and see if that makes a difference....

The only thing that comes to mind is that your validation is causing the change. The validators run some JavaScript that may be messing with your sizing/spacing on the page.
