Would anything like this, setting the 'max-width', be possible for 'source' 'webpages'.
And could it possibly be something like. I would me trilled (but I am far from a CSS writing expert)

Except for your first test, the unit to use together with max-width is the EM
unit, the most import unit in web design. Most browsers use 12pt=16px=1em as
default font-size. If we want short lines, let us say 500px wide, we just have
to set max-width to 31em (496px) or 32em (512px). If needed, different
max-widths can be used on the same page, or even max-width and wall-to-wall.
Browsers like Mozilla and Opera support the MAX-WIDTH property. MSIE does not
support max-width yet but that is not a problem. It is easy to make a JavaScript
for MSIE that simulates all the great virtues of max-width. This JavaScript is
necessary anyway to accommodate old versions of MSIE the GREAT DAY a new version
of IE has implemented max-width.
