You should see 2 boxes, one with inline and one with linked styles... Al Sparber - I disagree, IE8 in standards mode still is far from perfect, and when creating a corporate site that works in IE6/7/8 and going forward, its important to have a seperate style sheet that takes certain items into account. Regardless, if you agree, this still appears to be a bug.
