I am working my way through Eric Meyer's book on CSS. I have finished the
first chapter on converting a table based design to CSS. I have uploaded the
page
http://p0c79.phpwebhosting.com/~p0c79/ch01projopy.html
I would like to know why Eric has got the text in the middle of the footer
to be a bit bigger than the rest of the text in the footer by doing the
following
tr#footer td {vertical-align: middle; font-size: 66%; border-top: 3px solid
#EFE1D1;}
tr#footer td#tg {font-size: 85%; text-align: center;}
From what I've learnt in this group, such a declaration would make the
center text 85% of 66% which should be even smaller than 66% yet the text in
the middle of the footer is bigger not smaller. What am I missing?
(I realise that font percentages less than 80% are bad for accessibility -
don't know why Eric has gone as low as 66%)
TIA
