My understanding was that setting the font-size at 100% fixes the IE
font-sizing bug, but some versions of Opera render 100% too small, and
Safari doesn't like 101%. I came across a recommendation to use 100.01%,
and I have found that works across just about everything, including
IE5.01 forward (didn't look at Netscape before 7.2.
Hope this helps!
