I think if I set a base of 1em in the body it would solve my
problems, but then I have to apply font size 75% to make everything
the size I want it, and that would cause much the same problem as it
cascades down and potentially end up with really mini fonts
throughout the site...
Now, is there a way that I can cater for both browsers here?
You should at least start by setting the base in '%', to avoid a buggy
IE/win. The rest can be '%' or 'em'.
The exact value is your choice, but browsers have different 'tip-over'
points for recalculating '%' and 'em' to 'px' which they have to make
all font-sizes fit into. Experiment a bit to hit the middle ground down
the cascade.
You'll have to set font-size on td, for IE/win.
