What is the default font-size of H4?

I am completely lost. The website I check for CSS-defaults is always http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/sample.html (I don't trust any other site)

And it seems they missed the font-size of h4.

Sorry to bother you guys for this, but it is important and I don't know how to check it using the tools like firebug or one of those...

It's not there, because it's using the implied default font-size of 1em (which also happens to be the average between the values for <h3> and <h5>). As others have noted, though, this may not be true for your browser, and you should really set it yourself if you want to make sure.

Just looking at your link it seems it's 1em, i.e. the same size as normal text.

The default font size of pretty much any element is browser-specific. If you want a guaranteed size, set it yourself.
