(Hope the subject line is a bit clearer now.)
Mark, I understand, but the articles Rudy referred to seem more intended
for web developers, rather than for laypeople who don't understand the
difference between pixels, ems, keywords, etc. My client has indicated that
they "want the site to look the same" no matter what browser, resolution,
etc the user has. (I know this isn't possible, but the closest thing to
what they do want involves setting a fixed font size in the stylesheet.) I
want to point them to a few articles which explain, in terms a non-web
developer can understand, why font sizes need to be resizeable in order for
the site to be accessible.
