Difference between PX, EM and Percent
The px unit defines a measurement in screen pixels. The following is an example −
div { padding: 40px; }
The em unit is a relative measurement for the height of a font in em spaces. Because an em unit is equivalent to the size of a given font, if you assign a font to 12pt, each "em" unit would be 12pt; thus, 2em would be 24pt.
The following is an example −
p { letter-spacing: 4em; }
The % unit defines a measurement as a percentage relative to another value, typically an enclosing element.
p { font-size: 14pt; line-height: 80%; }
