This brings up a question I have been wondering about. What is the
consensus
(if there is a consensus :-) on the best way to provide resizable
(accessible) text while still permitting reasonably consistent layout
without torturous CSS? Font-size keywords? Relative sizes? ...
Extreme caution: there be tigers here.
Search the CSS-Discuss archives (1) and you will find numerous flame
wars on the font sizing issue. To avoid repeating same, there's a good
bit of reference material in our WIKI (2)(3).
Several methods of using relative sizes work very well and are described
at the places mentioned in the WIKI. One recent technique, which I just
added to the WIKI (3), is Joe Clark's ZOOM technique which offers
multiple style sheets and a preferencer setting mechanism (4).
