I may be setting myself up here, but I have been wondering. Suppose I
have a fairly small block of text I need to insert on a page like an
insert or sidebar in print. I could a) add a floated div of specific
height (in ems of course) that would be fluid, b) have a text image of
specific dimensions (in its intrinsic pixels). but why couldn't I c)
create a div that I treat like an image using pixels dimensions, but
without the bandwidth hit of the image?
