Thanks for the site feedback that every one offered, I took it to
heart. In doing so I promptly remembered why I had used fixed size
fonts.
Ems are fuzzy. An em should be the perfectly scalable unit for a
font-size, yet I find that it has an even greater variance across
browsers and platforms than points.
As most browsers attempt to figure out how many px high and wide a
character should be, they go into an anti-aliasing frenzy that
renders the type in an almost illegible manner.
What have you found to be the most successful manner of scaling
font-sizes using CSS?
