MSIE's support of CSS1 lacks in another area, font-size. MSIE takes literal numbers on the font-size element as being either pixel sizes or point sizes. It also does not treat it as being relative. "font-size: 1" produces a font with a size of 1 pixel (talk about squinting!) while "font-size: +1" generates a font that is 1 point or pixel larger than it used to be. I now have a question. Literal values were ment to be taken as a relative font size in one of the 7 HTML font sizes. My question is, if the size is already 7 (xx-large) does a "font-size: +1" generate an HTML font size of 8? (8 being aprox 150% larger than 7) -|- Carl Morris (N0YUV) -|- 1:285/302 -|- msftrncs@htcnet.com -|- -|- Hooper Connections BBS -|- 1-(402)-654-2102 -|- 28.8kbps V.34 -|- -|- http://199.120.83.179/~moreese/ -|-
