Re: [WSG] a a:hover

Hi Laert

This works:

a.someclass:hover {}

and then apply class to the link.

Re: [WSG] Best Practice to Offer Different Formats of Documents

that's because IE6 doesn't support attribute selectors. but you can
use classes instead.

Re: [WSG] how to set table column widths with CSS

It won't work in IE6 and below, it doesn't supports such selectors
unfortunately.

Re: [WSG] preserve whitespace

Hi

It is non-schematic way and usually you can solve this problem with
css padding property. If you don't -- use   to keep whitespace.
