Re: sample CSS property page: font-size

Hi, folks-

Looking at Mike's revisiting of this page design, I was struck that the 
syntax and value information seems more immediately relevant to readers 
than the table of data (initial value, computed value, inherited, etc.).

Maybe that table should be moved down after the values?
