Personally, I always design using 'em' units, wherever (and whenever) possible. I have found that this unit of measurement allows for the most fluid change in layouts, based on the user's type size preference (in their internet browser of choice). Failing that, I guess that I'd use pixels for screen/projection/handheld and points for print. > Personally I design in "pt" - but I would just like to get the view point of > other developers and the reason behind why they use it. PostScript points are a unit of measurement for print, not for screen usage. I've always avoided using print units - even after browsers started handling them better (circa 2002/3). -- Cheers, Sasha ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7 information -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
