For > example... Following the css 2.0 spec you're right, but version 2.1 of the specs doesn't require the width anymore. I don't understand why you want to float inline elements. IMHO float is only needed for block-level elements. The inline elements will line up each aside the other anyway. But maybe you declared display: block at another selector of your stylesheet... To resume: You can use that.
