You may have something there.

I don't normally mix units in a layout -- if I work with em's (most 
of the time), then I use them throughout the site and never use 
pixels.

However, I never thought using both keywords and numbers in different 
background-color rules might be construed as mixing units.

Thanks, that makes as much sense as anything I could think of.

Cheers,
