How do they manage to do this? Did you see Gayle's screen shot at <http://www.beachmedia.com/www/em2.gif>? The default size, the 100% size, and the 1em size should be the same, but they are not. 100% and 1em should refer to the browser default if the default has not been changed by an author stylesheet declaration, and it appears that neither N nor IE do an exact match. I wonder why this is so. David Perrell
