I've just started creating a web page. I want the text to fit at various irregular positions alongside of images, so I used "position absolute" to position elements where they need to be on the page. (The floating layout seems a little too unpredictable to me...) I've noticed that Internet Explorer displays font sizes differently than Firefox does and this leaves blank areas on the page where Internet Explorer displays the font sizes smaller than Firefox does. It seems that the Visual Web Developer IDE displays the page closer to how Firefox does than to Internet Explorer. How do real websites deal with the variations on how different browsers display text...?
