Felix, could you explain that last? I thought using ems (or
percentages) for line-height was the only way to keep line-height
proportional to the current font-size.
I'm not sure what problems Felix allude to.
One problem should be obvious however, when it comes to ems (or %). If
you set the base size, and the line-height of your text on the body
tag, and then only give a font-size for child elements, those will
inherit the *computed* value of line-height form the <body>
something like
body { font: 1em/2em serif}
h1 {font-size: 2em; }
the line-height for the h1 will be computed as 2em based on the
font-size of <body>
A better solution: use a numerical value for line-height
body { font: 1em/2 serif}
