Abstract
The scaling forms of the surface magnetization and susceptibility are determined for critical wetting in three bulk dimensions. The naive phenomenological scaling predictions are confirmed for model I systems, but there are logarithmic corrections associated with systems exhibiting model II, III behaviour Questions raised by a recent numerical simulation are also briefly addressedKeywords
