Hi,
Hi Heretic, please explain this. How does setting a % for text-size in body
prevent the appearance of smaller than 1em font sizes? Is 100% a good
starting point for body? Enquiring minds want to know.
Basically the idea is this: don't use settings smaller than 1em, for
example don't set
Has anyone made a stylesheet that resets everything back to the way it
would be if styling pure XML? If I have to, I'll go thru html.css and
undo everything that it does, but if someone here has already done it,
it'll save me a lot of time. I'm going to be teaching some web

I'm sure I've done this before, but I have a div element floated to the
right.
When the window is resized to be smaller, how can I make sure that at some
point the element on the right will not start to overlap the content in the
middle, but instead the horizontal scroll bar appears?
If you set the Body font size to 100.01% you can avoid the scaling
issue in IE and some older versions of Opera, and be able to use font
sizes less than 1em.

the specific elements when needed. This also gets rid of the repetitive

* margin:0; padding:0 removes the margin and padding from EVERYTHING.
You then have to declare your margins and padding on every element or there
will be none.
