What is the accepted practice for defining font sizes on a page?
Percentage (80%), Keyword (small, x-small), EM? I know that you
cannot specify a font size by pt or px (The user can't resize it).

Hi,
I'm looking for examples of accessible sites that use CSS that work
reasonably well across browsers. I'm particularly interested in sites
for non-profit organizations, as I'm looking to re-design a site for a
non-profit and need some ideas and would like to see what does and
doesn't work.
Thanks, Pat
