scuze my lazy code, on a teabreak - this is just to hilight a way of
using line-height to stop the fonts sliding down.
$("#names").click(function(){
$("#names span").animate({
fontSize: "50px",
}, 1500 );
$("#names span").animate({
fontSize: "1em",
}, 1500 );
});
#names {
display:block;
width:100%;
height:100px; line-height:100px;
}
#names span {
height:100%; line-height:100%;
}
<div id="names">Groom <span>&</span> Bride</div>
another alternative is to put each word in their own div, stick all 3
in a container and float them to the left. then resizing one won't
change the height of the others.
