IWC: font size: allow viewer to decide

The use of ..px in the style specifications prevent viewers from increasing (or decreasing) the font size by using the browers "View"; "Textsize" options.

If you could use font-size instead the pages would be more easy to view by people (like me) who don't see as well as they used to )

Thanks

instead of .smallfont {font: 10px ...
use .smallfont {font-size:xx-small or
.smallfont {font-size:80%

as much as that made no sense to me, get a pair of tri-focals if you cant see the screen.

Or you could just go to the 'View' pull down on your browser, select 'Text Size' and change the size you will view text on your computer there.

Make sense?
