My mistake, this is defined in the Units section: "Relative units in media queries are based on the initial value, which means that units are never based on results of declarations. For example, in HTML, the ‘em’ unit is relative to the initial value of ‘font-size’." - Maciej On May 16, 2012, at 1:42 PM, Maciej Stachowiak <mjs@apple.com> wrote: > > How are media queries using relative units supposed to be computed?

So it's not clear if this is meant to be a normative requirement or a fact that happens to be true for some other (non-obvious) reason, and it's not clear if it applies to all uses of relative units or only the specific example. > > Regards, > Maciej > >
