Hey Folks,

Am wondering if someone has any info on this for me.

Have been looking to different font sizing methods and decided to go
with a method suggested by Dan Cederholm (as I recall) )where the font
size is defined in the BODY tag and then percentages are used to
increase or decrease the size. EMs are used for line height.

Example of the base setting:

body {
font-family: "Arial", sans-serif;
font-size: small;
}


This has worked fine across Safari and IE browsers and should work on
Firefox, but I've noticed that there's a distinct difference in the way
Firefox is rendering text -- both on the Mac and on IE.

Does anyone know why this happens when IE and Safari work so well? It
may be a small issue, but damned if it isn't annoying. Overall, font
sizes seem smaller and line spacing tighter.

Even on a site like the NY Times, this sort of thing seems to be
happening here and there -- particularly in the text of the body of an
article.

Does anyone have a favorite method?

Would love to get something that's accessible and as consistent as
possible.


Thanks,

Anthony
