Hi Everybody,
I've just noticed that different browsers display my simple five-box web page differently.
I will guess, and think that using "px" to define the sizes of these boxes is the culprit.
I will guess again and think converting to "em" is the answer.
Arrrrgh!! To convert "px" to "em" apparantly requires a Base Pixel Size. Now I'm scared [expletive removed] about that.
So much for my assumptions. Is there a way to make a page display pretty much the same way in the most common broesers? ( Firefox, Explorer, Chrome, and Opera)
Thanks,

Can we see the page?

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

These might help understand the "why" of it. There are resets that can be done to help some of this, but there will always be a bit of difference between browsers that you cannot fix here and there:
