I am trying to establish a foundation for an em based layout and I am seeing some discrepancies between Firefox 2 and Safari 3.1.2 on the mac that I had not noticed before. My example file I am referencing is available at http://www.jasoncampbell.com/CSS
I have a simple setup here in this example. I have set the font-size for the body of my document to 62.5% my understanding is that by doing this I am, in effect, setting a base font size of roughly ten pixels. I then have a content div on the page with a width set to 98em which I am hoping in this case equates to a 980px wide area. In this div I have a bg image of 980px set. When I view the page in Firefox 2 everything is wonderful, full image, etcetera. However in Safari 3.1.2 to see the full bg image I have to increase the base font-size to 71.5% Is this right? I thought this was something that worked in both of these browsers, any insight is appreciated.
