Can someone please explain how the em unit of measurement works with the max-width css property? On my screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 I have found that setting the max-width to 140em is the equivalent of max-width of 100%.
Em is just another unit. It depends on the font size. Current font size (e.g. 14px) = 1em. 2em doubles the font size (28px).
Have a look at your screen resolution: 1920/140 = 13,714285714 – looks like your current font size is 14px. Therefore setting
max-width:140emis the same likemax-width:1920pxormax-width:100%– in your special case.
