Hi Patrick,
IIRC Opera has had these rounding problems with number 6. I haven't
tested newer versions. Those who are still using Opera 6 don't deserve
better :-)
The reason for taking 100.01% instead of 101% is called Safari. If you
use 101% everything is okay except the huge texts in Safari. In the
older Safari-versions I am sure this bug exists. I don't know if this
bug has been fixed. Unfortunately Sarafi is not well documented and I
don't use Macs.
So with 100.01% you are on the safe side.
Isn't CSS nice with browsers which are coded as if maintained by
6year-old kids ?
