One of the nice things about CSS is that you can throw all of it away, or some of it, and you will most likely still have a working website. It's never too late to fix/tweak/accommodate new thinking. I'm going to keep my sites at font-size:76% - for now. At the moment Dennis has to cut off his nose to spite his face on nine out of ten websites he encounters, rather than bumping up his default browser font size, but the day may come when he doesn't. It doesn't always pay to be on the vanguard. Without de facto standards - such as XMLHTTPRequest, Flash, RSS, nofollow links, etc - the web would be messier and develop at a slower pace. -- Chris Ovenden http://thepeer.blogspot.com "Imagine all the people / Sharing all the world" ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
