Either Seamonkey 3/2 Viewer or IE5 DR2 must be wrong. At the URL, compare the sentences "This sentence should be three ex tall." Ours looks suspiciously small.

On windows, real font x-height information is not available. So we (and microsoft) presume 50% of the font's ascent. This is what is displayed, this is also a pixel per pixel match of IE 4.0. If IE5.0 changed this, then they are buggy, or they somehow managed to get real x-height information.
