The chart depends on your page content. Using percentages or ems, make your largest type 1em or 100%. If that's too big for your headings/taste, drop down to .9em. Everything else after that is 8.5, 8, 7.5 or 7. Anything below 6.5-7 will become unreadable at higher resolutions generally but if you are using ems, I don't care myself because I have a mouse with a scroll wheel+Ctrl to resize (I resize text all the time and so do my aging parents once someone showed them it was possible).
This gives you at least four font sizes per page to work with, anything more and you may want to rethink your print layout. Not sure if it's common practice or not (for those catering to mostly IE) to keep the navigation items *fixed* using pixels (about 12-13px makes most navigation readable between platforms/browsers AFAIK) and the text people will actually "read" using % or ems to keep the page looking somewhat the same when the site visitors are resizing fonts.
