QuestionText Rendering in different web browsers on different platforms Pin

Hi, I'm trying to truncate and add ellipsis to text that's too long to fit in a specific width (in pixels), actually I'm already done with this part but the question is, are you aware of any differences in the way web browsers render text? Are there differences when rendering text in browsers on different platforms, e.g. Windows, Mac, Linux .. etc? I made some tests using IE6 and FF2 running on Windows XP and there was no difference at all, the text width was exactly the same in both browsers (using Verdana 12px).

I know about the CSS solution but I'm not willing to use it as it only works with IE, I also came across a javascript solution but I don't want to use it too (it makes some sense to save some bandwidth, why send something to the user that won't be displayed? this applies to the CSS solution too). Also, I'm not worried about users resizing the text, I'm only interested in getting this working with the *initial* font size.

I'm not completely sure but I don't think there are differences between browsers working on Windows, so I'm a little worried about the other platforms more esp. Mac, if you're using Mac then I would really appreciate if you measure this text for me (in Verdana 12px):

"this text is only meant for testing text rendering in different browsers" (without the quotes)

Thanks for your help ...
