Hi,

Would you elaborate on why the CSS rule invalidates the article? As it appears the authors explanation is sound.

html {
          font-size: 62.5%;
        }

S,

See this article from "Links for light Reading" scrolling down a bit you'll
find a JS solution that may prove useful:

Why Programmers Suck at CSS Design
<http://www.betaversion.org/~stefano/linotype/news/169/>

  That article ceased to be credible as soon as I saw:

     "My suggestion for you is to do the following: start your CSS
      stylesheet with

        html {
          font-size: 62.5%;
        }
"

Is the box model in IE7 still messed up? I thought they sorted it?

  It is fixed in standards mode, but I think it uses the broken model
  in quirks mode.

I am floating a div to the right with a width of 50%. The div to the left has a right margin of 50%. I've put a 1px solid border on both of them. In IE7 there is a gap between them but in Firefox they are right against each
other.

Go figure?
