I'm looking at my most recent screen BrowserCam captures.
In IE5.2 on MacOSX 10.4, the image caption moves to the right and
displaces the article text. I can't figure out why.

The next three captures are IE6 and IE8 on Windows machines with 800x600
screens. The text is chopped off at the right because the navigation
panel width and article width add up to 700 pixels.

Any added margin or padding would be just enough to push the text off
screen. Of course IE ignored my max-width 85% for the article, so now I
need to go with one of the suggestions I remember David, Duncan and Alan
came up when I last asked about max-width: Use a conditional comment to
call separate style sheet for IE, or hack the CSS.

Without provoking any irritation, am I correct in my impression that
hacking the style sheet is best option, and lack of CSS validation
probably won't present me with major problems?
