I have developed a practice of using 100% in the body and then using em elsewhere to set sizes.
I have vague memories of doing this because the percentage handled a glitch in one browser or another. Can't recall the details now. Is this a case of age invented memories, or was there such a consideration at one time that made the % in body a good idea even if one had a personal preference for em in the rest of the style sheet?
I don't know whether it might make any difference in practice, but in theory, using an em before one has selected a font, weight, shape and size would seem to be putting the cart before the horse ! ** Philip Taylor ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
