Hi All,

Although not particularly a Cakey question..

That is potentially not a very good idea, and it's interesting that
it's mentioned as part of an accessibility type question.

Setting font sizes in any absolute unit is generally a bad idea - can
mean that the browsers own resizing stuff doesn't work (older
browsers, granted). It is generally a much better idea to use relative
units for all font defenitions either ems or % Ref: http://www.w3.org/
TR/WCAG10-CSS-TECHS/#units

Also interesting that section508.gov's website uses px to define font
sizes, although they do provide a means of changing the font size that
would work without js.

But, isn't that a lot of work when in most browsers you can change the
font size or switch to alternate css at will :) ? Ok it's not that
much work, and changing style can be nice at the click of a (web)
button, but even so :D?

Cheers,
