Hi Mike, Only partially at the moment because I have no time :( But, if you don't mind the background image problem, my actual Website is a good exemple : http://www.echo3d.com (and if you go under portfolio, click a project, and look at the content image. It use the same technique so you'll be able to scale it, of course quality drops when you do but as soon as IE support entirely PNG24 I'll be able to put good resolution pictures and forget about quality). My under dev page is more like it http://dev.echo3d.com/services (it's the only page available at the moment)
Cheers, H. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Foskett Sent: April 14, 2005 08:29 To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org Subject: RE: [WSG] Fixed pixel fontsize -> resizable font size Hi Hugues, Do you have an online version demonstrating this technique?

So all your layout can zoom in/out too. The easy way I know is to define what 1em is by telling first in pixels : html { font-size: 10px !important; /* understood and respected by browsers except for IE that will take the last identical attribute */ font-size: x-small; /* IE equivalent for 10px */ } And then tell the next element to appear in your code : body { font-size: 1em; } And then, if you want a div to be 200 by 345 pixels : div { width: 20em; height: 34.5em; } Or in case only height should be "zoomable" div { width: 200px; height: 34.5em; } So now when you use "text size / increase (zoom), all your element will zoom too. Hope it helps Hugues Brunelle Concepteur graphique ////////////////////////////// ECHO tridimension 2139 rue Masson Montréal QC H2H 1A8 1-(514)5211360 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Neerav Sent: April 14, 2005 03:21 To: WSG Subject: [WSG] Fixed pixel fontsize -> resizable font size Hi all Im doing a bit of pro bono work at the moment and not having ever used fixed font sizes, was wondering if there are any percentage or em equivalents or formulas to convert from: FONT-SIZE: 11px; FONT-SIZE: 22px; FONT-SIZE: 10px; FONT-SIZE: 14px; FONT-SIZE: 16px; etc to more accessible font size units -- Neerav Bhatt http://www.bhatt.id.au Need a Sydney based web standards contractor?
