Then solve for 'right' In the example <http://stanio.info/containing_block.html> I've already given 'left' is not 'auto' (although not explicitly specified and its initial value is 'auto') because (before the rule list): > If all three of 'left', 'width', and 'right' are 'auto': First set > any 'auto' values for 'margin-left' and 'margin-right' to 0.
