I think there's a mistake with the percentage definition. When you define line-height to 1.5% you don't multiply it by 1.5, you multiply it by 0.15.
line-height
1.5%
1.5
0.15
Also it refers to the element it is defined, not the parent. 100% on the child would give a line-height value of 24px.
100%
24px
At least it's what I'm getting on Firefox. Is it different for you?
Your are right! It should be 150%!
Yeah while I was writing this I was thinking for some reason about witdh or height. % in line-heigh refers to the font-size of the element.
Thank you!
Yes and it refers to the font-size of the element itself. I think that for .child to have a line-height of 24px it should have it set to 100%.
font-size
.child
I just forgot to update the CSS 🤣.
Now it should be correct!
Thanks again! appreciated it!
