What is the difference between declaring width at 100% or auto? I guess
what I'm more interested in is why you'd want to use one or another with
certain browsers.
I was studying the css at yahoo mail's site (still amazes me) and
noticed that they're using a selector hack to override the width for
certain browsers:
div.sidebar div{width:100%;}
html>body .sidebar div{width:auto;}
What is the difference between the 100% and the auto? I'm guessing
there is some kinda quirk at play here and I'd really like to know what
it is.
I also noticed that they do this:
.modulecontainer div{border-style:solid;border-width:1px;margin:-2px
-8px;height:1em;}
html>body .modulecontainer div{height:auto;}
notice that they override in the height. However, in this case it's 1em
vs auto. Why are they doing this?
I'd appreciate any input!
Thanks!
Mike
