font size using cascading style sheets

Hello!

I wonder how to specify font size to have text appear relatively
similarly sized in Netscape and Explorer? I am using a linked style
sheet to all the pages of my site and my font-size is specified as
medium. This gives a fine text in Netscape, normally, and a bold text
in Explorer and in tables in Netscape. Most of the time this isn't a
problem, but sometimes it is, so I just wonder if there is a better way
to define font size than to use medium, large etc? What are your
opinions on this?

Sincerely,
Sofia B.
