Learned a lot from just reading the posts.

Interesting comment/recommendation in one of the other threads lead me to wonder if basing font size (and maybe other parameters) on a percentage instead of hard coding it is recommended for the e-reader compatibility.

I usually start out with my basic.css and hardcode h1 to be 2.5em (assuming that it will be 2.5x the paragraph font size)

Q1: Does it matter if I use 2.5em or 250%?
Q2: Should the percentage approach be applied to other parameters?

/* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- text*/
p {
	text-indent:2em;
	text-align: left;
	font-size: 1em;
	margin-top:0;
	margin-bottom: 1em;
	font-weight: normal;
	font-style: normal;
	line-height:125%;
}


/* for the first <p> after the h1, h2, h3 */
h1 + p {text-indent:0;}
h2 + p {text-indent:0;}
h3 + p {text-indent:0;}



/* --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- headings */
h1 {
	page-break-before: always;
	page-break-after: avoid;
	text-indent: 0;
	text-align: center;
	margin-top:0;
	margin-bottom: 1em;
	font-size: 2.5em;
	font-weight: bold;
	font-style: normal;
	color:blue;	
}

h2 {
	page-break-after: avoid;
	text-indent: 0;
	text-align: center;
	margin-top:0em;
	margin-bottom: 1em;
	font-size: 2em;
	font-weight: bold;
	font-style: normal;
	color:blue;	
}

The family uses some flavor of Kindles, so I don't have to have 'global' compatibility, but I do like to do things right.

Thanks
