durangod · 10-10-2012, 05:05 PM

Im just wondering what what is the overall norm here.

I do see alot of this type format

Code:

font-size:12px;

but it also seems that this is becomming more popular

Code:

font-size:small;

I can see the benefit to both, but also there are times that you need to dial in the font size perfectly and so the px method would work better.

Questions are :

What are they teaching in school now or leaning toward?
Is there an industry standard or w3c preference here?

Thanks
