Jan, While I applaud using percents so people can adjust sizes but 73% on my laptop in its default configuration isn't readable. Nor will it be readable on a Mac which renders text smaller than with IE on the PC. While many designers love small font sizes from my informal survey (students where I teach age range of 19-70, average 40ish) anything below 80% is uncomfortable and most don't like it below 90% for body text.
BTW, why would "training for exchange" by which I take you mean Exchange Server limit you to IE for browser testing? I'm rather firmly in the MS OS camp (I dislike command line and gladly abandoned it with Windows 95) but I still have IE 6, NN 4 (recently removed 6.2), Mozilla, Opera 6 & 7 for testing purposes. For a down and dirty comparisons of font sizes. The default size for IE is roughly 13.5pt while for Netscape it is 12pt. Cheryl D.

Font size is relative to the containing unit. Yes, I did it that way so I can use 115%, 125% with all font sizes relative to the main size of 73% > Don't have NS to compare with since I'm in training for exchange and I'm > therefore limited to the world of ms.
