"All elements" doesn't mean just all HTML elements. Anyway, most HTML elements are grouped too so it doesn't really make sense to test them all. For instance, <p>, <span>, <h1>-<h6> and <div> are quite similar in display except for some default font-size, margin and display differences. Then there's a whole bunch of HTML elements that CSS is not defined for (unfortunately) such as form controls. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
