Locking the text size is never a good idea. Users change the font size so
that they can read the text.
The only way to lock the text size is to convert it to an image - which
makes for a huge download for body text, and the users who would change the
font size would be unable to read it. Search engines will also be unable to
index the page, if that is important.
