Some kind soul pointed me to the URL (thanks ~dl). <http://checkoutacollege.com/LanguageTracks/Cambodian/Cambodian.aspx> from the stylesheet: #inner-intro-container p.languages-intro-Cambodian { color:#DD6000; font-size:1.5em; line-height:25px; /* <-- this causes serious problems in Opera */ margin:0; padding:10px 0 0 10px; } content.css (line 268) and #inner-intro-container p { background-color:#EAD791; clear:both; font-family:Georgia,Times; /* <-- no Khmer font specified...*/ width:70%; } On OS X, with the KhmerOS font installed I don't see any font-size difference between various browsers (Safari, Gecko 1.9.0 ~ 1.9.6b), Opera 10. There are quite a bit of difference in line-spacing though. The line-height: 25px; causes serious issues in Opera. Safari and Gecko don't agree either (I'm not sure who's correct). The font-size 62.5% set on <body>isn't helpful either.
