I did a quick test at 12pt and measured length for lazy dog line ..... ff/opera/msie were all same at 123mm amaya came in at 108mm ie about 88% of the length of the others ---> once again the purist approach may not be the best approach when developing a tool if it intended for 'real world' designers who are producing product for all users... a conform to concensus viewpoint may bring the tool into mainstream use.... can anyone justify the shortness --- are they all out of step except our Jacque???? the test doc follows ------------------ <?xml version="1.1" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"> <html xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head><title>Font Size:VE3LL@RAC.CA</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/> <style type="text/css"> p {font-size:12pt} </style></head> <body><h1>Font Size:VE3LL@RAC.CA</h1> <p>The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dogs back.</p> <ul> <li>Firefox 2: 123mm</li> <li>Opera 9: 123mm</li> <li>SlimBrowser: 123mm</li> <li>MSIE 7: 123mm</li> <li>Amaya 9.99: 108mm</li> </ul></body></html> -- -- John Russell, VE3LL@COGECO.CA http://home.cogeco.ca/~ve3ll http://home.cogeco.ca/~trains http://home.cogeco.ca/~cipher
