I understand that. And CSS gives users the ability to override anything you
say in your stylesheet with !important rules in a user stylesheet. I'm not
quite sure whether you understand that....
> The font zoom does not scale up the background-image.
Yes, because it's a _font_ zoom. It simply sets the equivalent of !important
font-size rules in the user stylesheet, like I said.
It seems that your only issue is that Mozilla implements a font zoom, not a
whole-page zoom (a la Opera). That has nothing to do with CSS, however.
> a pixel is a pixel. it does not resize unless you change your resolution.
I'm sorry, but that's not true in CSS. For example, in CSS a pixel resizes if
you change your viewing distance. I recommend giving the CSS definition of
pixel a read:
