Really large font size

178 100+
Hi,

I want to create a page for monitoring levels. I need a really large font size. 200 - 300px if possible. I have tried all the css methods using %, px, and xx-large, but none make a difference.

Heres my code
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <html>
  2. <head>
  3. <style type="text/css">
  4. #ch1{
  5.  position:absolute;
  6.  top:0%;
  7.  left:0%;
  8.  border:solid #006666 3px;
  9.  background: gray;
  10.  height:30%;
  11.  width:50%;
  12.  text-align:right;
  13.  font-size: xx-large;
  14.  font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
  15. }
  16. #ch2{
  17.  position:absolute;
  18.  top:0%;
  19.  left:50%;
  20.  border:solid #006666 3px;
  21.  background: gray;
  22.  height:30%;
  23.  width:50%;
  24.  text-align:right;
  25.  font-size: 1000%;
  26.  
  27. }
  28. #form{
  29.  font-size:200px;
  30. }
  31. </style>
  32. <script type="text/javascript">
  33. </script>
  34. </head>
  35. <body>
  36. <form id="form">
  37. <fieldset id="ch1">
  38. <legend>Channel 1</legend>
  39. <div>0 mA
  40. </div>
  41. </fieldset>
  42. <fieldset id="ch2">
  43. <legend>Chanel 2</legend>
  44. <h1>0 mA
  45. </h1>
  46. </fieldset>
  47. </form>
  48. </body>
  49. </html>

I'm surprised 1000% works but your markup works fine for me, as does px and em.
