If that is the case, then what is the best approach for trying to guarantee
that the width I begrudgingly must give is wide enough to include all of the
(one line) text (and padding) without losing the original intent of it being
a "tight fitting border"? That is, assuming different potential fonts will
be used on different platforms, are there suggested width units I should use
(perhaps em or ex) and should I run through all of the fonts on my
font-family list and use the widest of them as the standard? Seems like
there ought to be a better way (beside the fact that I can't possibly
anticipate what the generic font family might result in). Would
font-size-adjust be helpful here (and is there any browser support for it
anyway?)
Thanks,
