Re: [css-d] Use of !ie and !important

!important is not a hack. It's an official W3C thing, although I believe it's supposed to be used only in user stylesheets. Slob Jones wrote: > Let me post the question properly. > > The hack !important works in IE6 but not in IE7. > > Is there a hack -- or perhaps another routine -- that will

Create stylesheets with the css you want to feed IE6 and IE7. Then put conditional comments in the head of your page:

Re: [css-d] Use of !ie and !important

Let me post the question properly. The hack !important works in IE6 but not in IE7. Is there a hack -- or perhaps another routine -- that will work in IE7? My particular problem regards positioning. I find that extra pixel or two in IE can make a design look less than stellar. david wrote: >

Re: [css-d] Use of !ie and !important

I keep hearing how !important is an "invalid hack," and yet I see no suggestions on how to solve the very real problem of that additional pixel or two in IE that screws up people's layouts. That invalid hack, by the way, works very well in IE6. Anyone? >> Can someone let me in what is meant wi

[css-d] Use of !ie and !important
