In theory, on the standard browser ;-(IE6 on windows) the default font size is 12 pixels so in that case 1em = 12 pixels. Or it should be until you start playing with it with font-size=76%. But for some reason using font-size=76% 1em = 12px and 60em = 720px with text-size medium. If you use text-size smallest 1em = 9px and text-size largest 1em = 18px. > And I am not sure what you were saying in the line that had > (60em) in it. I use a container div 60em wide to hold all my content. That way no content is wider than 60ems 720px. Max size for a 800 by 600 screen at text size medium.. > On the JavaScript front..... that is something I want to > avoid.

Try and finish this later got a couple of nasty problems to solve.
