No, I did not read "Transcending CSS", but my understanding of this from your posts is that authors should not spent too much time styling things for IE, instead they should create "better" designs for better browsers. We all agree that it makes no sense to try to make things look the same in IE6, but I think it makes no sense to do the bare minimum for that browser either. At least as long as it is a big player. "Stealing" time from IE6 dev time to tune styles sheets for browsers that represent a very small fraction of your audience is no better than spending time on making rounded corner, drop shadow, etc. work in IE6. I think the key is to *balance* these two approaches. Of course, if conversion is not your primary goal, then you can go wild, forget the user, and do it for yourself ;) -- Regards, Thierry www.tjkdesign.com | articles and tutorials www.ez-css.org | ultra light CSS framework ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
