Note this recommendation from the W3C consortium: http://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/font-size quote: Size: respect the users' preferences, avoid small size for content * As a base font size for a document, 1em (or 100%) is equivalent to setting the font size to the user's preference. Use this as a basis for your font sizes, and avoid setting a smaller base font size * Avoid sizes in em smaller than 1em for text body, except maybe for copyright statements or other kinds of "fine print." end quote...
