readability
Authored by: mzajac on Jan 15, '03 12:20:15PM

I've used a user style sheet for ages in MSIE 5, and now in Chimera. The following will make everything much more readable (If you're only using MSIE, you just need the first css statement).


/* make stuff easy and fun to read */
body { line-height: 1.5; }

/* but don't let form elements get too fat in Mozilla */
select, input { line-height: normal; }

/*
In ‘quirks mode' Mozilla (and Chimera) emulates the broken
inheritance model of Netscape 4. This restores standards-
compliant behaviour, so that my line-height rule works in
table layouts.

*/
table, caption {
font-size: inherit;
font-weight: inherit;
font-style: inherit;
font-variant: inherit;
}
table {
text-align: inherit;
white-space: inherit;
line-height: inherit;
}
</pre>
