Do it both ways.

Test the page at text-size "largest" in IE; and at +1 and +2 font-scaling in a compliant browser.

This will enable you to decide where you should use one or the other in the specific situation such as the one at hand. Maybe. I think in general that there are relatively few definitive answers that will work in every conceivable situation that arises in any given layout. There is a long and steep learning curve. With knowledge of the specs, time, experience, and practice, knowing what works when and where becomes a little easier. > > > > > Márcio > > > ~d ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
