@laurakalbag@LeaVerou I find lots of hearsay around CSS, some of which is outdated and some just plain wrong. Will test and see… -

@laurakalbag@LeaVerou What I’m saying is, it would help me make an educated decision if I knew exactly which older browsers are effected… -
@aral What do you need to know? I happen to be doing CSS unit tests at this very moment. -
@ppk Ooh :) Just what impact setting the root font size in pixels instead of percentages has on being able to scale text in browsers. -
@aral You don't want to set the root font size, right? Just use it with rem units. rems are not supported by IE8 and lower. -
@ppk I tweak the root not size at breakpoints to make the whole design (specified in rems) scale up and down in proportion. - 8 more replies

@aral@laurakalbag@LeaVerou I have to admit that I’ve used this technique & with browser testing, down to IE7, I’ve not found any issues :)Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
