It's the 'star html' hack, which is only parsed by IE. IE thinks there's another element 'above' html. There isn't, but hey.

also, I noticed this doesn't validate by w3c, but I see it a lot

It should validate. Get rid of the space.

It should be * html rest-of-selector {property:value} Note the space between the * and html.
