The other problem that I face frequently is, that I try to build websites that look good at at least 800x600px and flow to more or less 1000px width at default font-size. I set the max-width for maintaining the readability of the main content. At the small resolution, I'll get problems to fit the content to the layout if I don't reduce the font-size (at least in navigation or extra columns). But ok, let me make a first start for best practices regarding font-sizes: - Don't reduce the main font-size to less than 80% of the default font-size. Try to keep it at 100%. - Let the layout grow/shrink with the font-size or ensure that there is enough space to enlarge the font-size to 150%. Any corrections/additions? regards Martin ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
