11,258 PointsWhat measure unit has been used to determine body line-height?
In the "basestyle.css" we have something like this: body{ line-height: 1.6; } First I thought it was "em" unit, but changed to "em" the layout changes too which means its not. What type of units have been used in this case, pixels, percentage? Basically the question is: what units do we use if we don't define any, like in this example?
