Ahh yeah? I might give that a shot then :) Thanks!
But yeah, the problem wasn't with the font size, if you read my original message it is actually a problem with my CSS not working properly.
Cheers

Hey Mordechai,
Yeah I know I did that - I wanted to set the base size for the font... When you set something to 1em, what is that based on? I always set a fixed global font, and then base everything off that. I think that was the intention of the em system... but IE has kind of ruined it...
1.0em is equal to the users default font setting. So, if the user leaves the browser at it's installed default, it's probably 16px, but that varies between browser a bit.
Font-size methods is a *very* touchy subject with some folks, but I have found good success (getting feedback from users) with the following settings:
body { font-size: 76%; }
#container { font-size: 1.0em; }
