What fresh hell is THIS now? - Patrick Lauke
[Dean Birkett, a11y] Just found this on the BBC accessibility pages:
"Having a minimum text size will reduce the number of users who need to make use of browser based text resize or page zoom. This is a particular issue with an ageing audience, many of whom will not consider themselves as having low vision and there will not have access to assistive technology or be familiar with browser tools to resize content.”
….. the guidelines recommend 11px and 13px(!)
