I want to set font size with em, not px. Here is my code:
<style type="text/css">
body{
font-size: 62.5%;
}
div{
font-size: 1.2em;
}
</style>
<body>
<div>hello world</div>
</body>
I want to set div font size to be 12px, but it looks small than I expect, I disable div style with chrome browser tools, it does not look to have any change. Why and how should I do to make div font size 12px? Thanks.

hmm, seems to work for me: example
Though, what you might be referring to is little change from enabling/disabling the font-size property. This is because the em for nested elements is relative to their parents font-size. In your instance, the font-size:Xem for the div is relative to the font-size:X% of the body.
If your still getting no change, try setting your body's font-size to a larger percentage to make your div's font larger
