Hi community,

sorry for the programmatical subject. My question is as follows:

If an element's width and its margin is wider than the containing
element's width, how should browsers render this according to the spec?

I find that FF3, IE7, Safari (PC) and Opera all allow this margin to
exist and don't break the design while IE6 (no surprise) thinks that it
has to extend the containing element's width.

However, is this approach intended or just "be nice to developers"?

Thanks for any clarification.


Cheers,
 
Jens
