Howdy do,

BTW, I don't have my current scratch work up here.
Just trying to abide by posting rules.

I am having a small amount of problems with few folks
on displays.

1 being font wrap.

Which is pretty much resolved by using PT for font size and height.

In exploring this problem/grey area to me I found out that
a Pixel is not a fixed property... Physical size can vary
from display to display, and think also browsers. This took me aback.
Obviously not a graphics person... Based on this fact,
I tried used PT as positioning... Reasoning being I want
Absolutes.

I also found out container sizes can conflict, thats probably a
DUH for most of you, but.

Now based on your experiences, across the multitude of browsers,
will this give me any problems...?

My displays look just fine FF, IE7 and Opera.

Also if that is OK, THEN:

Is PT actually an ABSOLUTE measurement?

Thank you,

Seeker

There are only 5 length units that are considered "absolute".
Inches (in)
Centimeters (cm)
Millimeters (mm)
Points (pt)
Picas (pc)

However in the real world the mapping of any of the above to a monitor is usually approximate at best.
The reason being is that these measurements are meant for the print world and not for a screen display device.
