> Firefox is returning the value in pixels while IE6 is returning > the value in ems. Is this a bug? It's just IE being IE. Other browsers have getComputedStyle which tells you the dimensions in pixels. IE has currentStyle; although that does tell you the current style (taking the CSS cascade into effect) it returns whatever dimensions were given in the style rule. jQuery's .css() method uses whatever it's dealt by the browser. I think I've seen IE hacks where you can put a box around a character and then measure the box in pixels to get the font size, but my Google-fu is weak at the moment.
