Thnx for the suggestion..but i need to define the font size in the body
itself....

I've defined 75% which works well in IE6..but it appears smaller in IE6....

Hi ,

Setting the body to font size to 65% - 70% is a good start. this averages
out the differences between the browsers,

body {        font-size: 70%;}

From then on set your font sizes in ems.

h1 {        font-size: 1.8em;}

And keep in mind that changes to the em size will cascade through
container objects.

 Subject
[WSG] Converting font size from pt to % or em






Hi Guys,

 I'm developing a website that have some standards defined. The font size
specified is 9pt. But due to accessibility standards I wanted to  convert
that in % or em. Can anybody tell what do i need to use to view the same
size in different browsers?
