It's been discussed fairly recently on this list. The 16px default size is based on text being 12pt high on a 96dpi screen. Now, many new PCs are being dispatched with 120dpi or higher pre-configured so on those machines 16px will not be the default: it will be bigger. Also, now many mobile devices with small screens are accessing the web, and their default pixel size is unlikely to be 16px. -- http://antanova.blogspot.com ______________________________________________________________________ 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/
