Make text appear the same size across Mac and Windows

[BabyJeffy]

I've been using this simple technique for a few years, and find I keep coming back to it again and again. I have no idea who deserves the credit for suggesting it initially (maybe Dan Cederholm?) but I wanted to enshrine it in an FAQ for future reference:

faq215-6624

<style type="text/css">
   html>body { font-size: 16px; }
   body { font-size: 100%; }
</style>

<!--[if gt IE 6.9999]>
<style type="text/css">
   html>body { font-size: 100%; }
</style>
<![endif]-->

Of course, there is a full description of how it works in the FAQ

Cheers,
Jeff
