You can't just measure it by IE's +2 and -2, because for users with widescreen displays, the default is something like +1. This is because widescreen Windows XP runs at 120 dpi rather than the standard 96 dpi, and to compensate for small text, the text is automatically set to be larger. Therefore

Ok, For the moment being, I am going to ignore the links in the top right corner and the fieldset in the bottom left. What do you think about the WAI issue? Keep the p's and add in a small span of text inside the link, or put all of the p text into a span and use that? --zacharyOn 10/2/05, Felix
