Actually, I switched to using specific sizes (i.e. "px") instead of what was there before (i.e. "pt" sizes), because different combinations of browsers and platforms and OS have different ideas of how big a point is. Windows seems to think that a point is bigger than a Mac or a Unix machine do. So it appears that there are now arguments against either method. :) Let me think about this for a while. Maybe the best solution is to let the browser use it's default font size, and use percentages for smaller or larger text. Like I said, I will play with this a bit ... but thanks for the comment. Making a site that is cross-browser/platform compatible -- and still looks good -- is such a chore. :) - Colin
