I often wondered if there would be a way to install a plug-in (or BHO for
IE) into non-standard browsers that would then render web pages according to
web standards. Recently, I ran across a web site that promoted a Java class

Looks great in a Panther version of Safari, but in Safari 1 it falls
apart. The navigation in particular. I guess partly because it relies
entirely on CSS for the dropdown menus, providing a separate stylesheet

This might be a familiar story to you - i'm after a simple image
layout. I can code this layout in tables with my eyes shut, but can't
get it to work for me using css for layout.

David,
be sure to read the rest of my post. After all the maths you end up with
a font-size of 12px for the main copy in modern browsers with default
font settings. It displays well in IE, and of course the text is resizable.
It works like this:
browser default = 16px;
therefore body = 16px;
David - as a side note, this method, using an overall percentage and
then the 'em' keyword is the only way to allow IE to resize text as
expected. I too tend to use 62.5, because for my (much younger is
seems ;-) ) eyes, I prefer it. But, it will very much allow resize to
happen, where
