I'm working on a site design where I'm trying to use a styled list for navigation (I've posted a snippet at http://www.capstrat.com/development/ncac/template-home.html)
I'm finding that my usual technique for getting the text-size to be similar cross-platform is working for *most* of the text elements, but the navigation in particular is causing problems. My designer wants the top-level nav on the page (visit/experience the arts, etc...) to be about as wide as the image below it. I've got it pretty darn close on Windows browsers, but Mac browsers (across the board) are rendering the text for this menu much smaller than the PC browsers. I've tried defining the text with a pixel size: font-size: 9px; and with a relative size: font-size: .75em; (the body container is set at 76%) But both attempts yield similar results - on mac browsers, the menu is much smaller (reference: http://www.browsercam.com/public.aspx?proj_id=164000). Can anyone offer me some insight? Elsewhere on the page, I'm satisfied that the font size is similar across operating systems... the problem appears to be extreme on the small-end.
