I doubt that browsers have the ability to make anything in the
size you specify. An inch on one of my screens is 100px, on
another is about 68px (as I have them set at present). A browser
would need to know a screen resolution and calculate what an inch
and a fraction of an inch across would be, just imagine that and
handling rounding errors and getting it exact!
Imagine the absurd results if it could actually do this and
someone with tired eyes wanted to enlarge the text in the
browser. Does the table still remian 1.2428 inches long and show
only the tiniest bit of the content you wanted?
You need to think through the differences between the print and
screen scenes.
