====
sizes!
====
* several units are supported by CSS
* we will focus on relative units:
% and em
em is roughly the size of an uppercase M in the element's
current font (!)
* QUIRK to know:
when a declaration includes a size,
there can be NO space between the numeric size
and its unit:
footer
{
font-size: 0.5em;
}
