Thanks, David!
Your example is really interesting.
But still wondering... 120% is not absolutely neccessary in your code
li { width: 120%; }
is exactly
li { width: 3.6em; } /* 3em of parent * 120% = 3.6 em */
I mean that 120% from non percent value is always known and can be
calculated manually up front.
120% width from percentable container width really makes sence but is it
practically useful?
Does anybody seen width:120% (any number greater than 100%) in real life?
