The following does work in IE7+ and FF3:
div#sidebar > *:first-child {margin-top: 0;}
div#content

Hi Rob - you apply the :first-child pseudo class to the element you
want to target, not the parent whose child you want to target. e.g.
div#sidebar p:first-child { margin-top: 0; }
However, for s
Hi all,
I am trying to use the first-child pseudo-class to set a zero top margin in
several content divs on a page. The page works in IE7, but not FF3 -- kind
of the opposite of what I would expect. In FF3 the sidebar has a single
element in it, and a style of...

I think of "elastic" as being a hybrid of "fluid" and "fixed". I hear
what you're saying regarding fixed widths and wide screens (like a
postage stamp on a coffee table), but that said, one thing I wonder
