In my opinion, this is a matter of what fonts are being used, as well as the
default font size. This needs careful testing under many Web browsers and
platforms however. I sometimes prefer to inherit bits of CSS from sites that
have done all that cross-browser/platform work /already/, e.g.:
h3 {
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-size: 7em;
font-weight: normal
}
How about the following for italics?
p {
font-family : Times New Roman, serif;
font-style: italic;
font-size : 150%;
}
Just my opinion(/taste)...
