Scalable form input boxes linked to text size

[optik]

I have some CCS scaled input boxes on a form but when users increase the browser text size the boxes remain the same size partially hiding the text.

Is there any way I can get the input boxes to increase in size like they do when a CSS size style isn't applied?

Thanks

Are you using scalable sizing for your boxes and text? % and em?

Pixels are bot "flexible"

I tired % instead of pixels but that didn't work, not sure what em is?

What would a relative scale like percentage refer to?

An "em" is a unit of measure for length.

1em is the width of the upper case letter "M", but most often it's used as the height of the letter just as well.

So if you -in a given font- know a string fits in 20em, no matter how large those letters get scaled, they'll still fit.

That's great em did the trick, thanks.
