css font size question

T

the idiot

i use em to size my fonts with css. normally between .8 to 1em
is there a bit of css i can use to give a mimum size so the type doesnt get
too small if the viewer has their text-size set to smallest?
i hope this is clear.
tia.

Your 0.8em is 20% smaller than my default (preferred) size. Is this
for a copyright notice, or legalese?

No, you can't assign a "minimum", afaik.

Consider using percentages instead of em. IE bug when em used.
body { font-size: 100%; }
legalese { font-size: 80%; }
i hope this is clear. tia.

Probably. <g>
