title: Font Size Attribute not in pixels?
body: <p>I am trying to display old HTML2 in modern browsers. The (poorly created) HTML3 code contains the <strong>font</strong> HTML element with the <strong>size</strong> attribute. The size of the text was defined in pixels, so size="14" means the user wants the text to be 14px in size.</p>
  
  <p>The W3School documentation specifies that the valid values for the size attribute can only be these "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,+1,+2,+3,+4,+5,+6,+7,-1,-2,-3,-4,-5,-6,-7". So it seems that the font size attribute unit's are not in pixels but em or something?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Is there a way to get the font element to show the font text size in pixel units?</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have tried the following but they dont work in Safari browser:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;font size="14"&gt;test&lt;/font&gt;    // displays in huge text(its not 14px in font size)
  &lt;font size="14px"&gt;test&lt;/font&gt;  // looks the same as line 1
  &lt;font size="14pt"&gt;test&lt;/font&gt;  // looks the same as line 1
  &lt;font size="14em"&gt;test&lt;/font&gt;  // On Firefox the font size is 14px(correct) but on Safari it looks the same as line 1
  &lt;font size="14%"&gt;test&lt;/font&gt;   // looks the same as line 1
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>Maybe if I try to change the DTD of the HTML file it will read HTML3 code?</strong></p>
