As soon as the word "accessibility" comes in to play, having a page display exactly the same in multiply browsers become REAL hard.
To be accessible, you cannot use "px". The logic is alone the lines of "If user XYZ" has their font size on "Really Big", it will be because they need it. I use "em" mostly. The measure of unit is height of a capital "M". Are the results in 5.5 and 6 a bit different, or completely different? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of KNOTT, Brian Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2005 1:49 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: OT CSS I'm using <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";> Looks the same Brian -----Original Message----- From: Brett Payne-Rhodes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 16 June 2005 11:51 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: OT CSS Hi Brian, What is your DOCTYPE set to?
