Thanks, forgot about that one. I guess that creates the dilemma of either  
making your website honor custom settings, or get it to look the same on  
all browsers. I guess d-programming-language.org uses relative font sizes,  
otherwise there wouldn't be so many contradicting complaints about the  
font being either too small or too large...
