CSS doesn't have strict separation of versions. The validator should
check only well-formness of it.
That's certainly not what the W3 validator does.

validate a file with that in it, I get this:

Hi,
Normally IE seems to ignore the proper rules of floats and expand boxes
to fit them. Using this and overflow:auto for the other
browsers that do the rules properly, is usually a fairly simple
solution to the overlapping float problem. However, I've have a page
that uses overflow:auto, and

As you say, sadly not too many companies know about web standards, and
why they are important to them.
So it isn't really an option to make web standards a selling point,
but the company will be happy when they don't receive any complaints
about compatibility issues and such.
