Of COURSE I understand how absurd this is - read my mail all the way through. It was a limitation of our IE3 rendering engine and the resources (about 1/3 of my time, minus the three weeks I was out of the office for health reasons) to change it in order to support stylesheets. I also said in my previous email that IE4 already supports this properly. -Chris Chris Wilson cwilso@microsoft.com -[- >-----Original Message----- >From: Dan Delaney [SMTP:dionysos@dionysia.org] >Sent: Tuesday, February 04, 1997 10:50 AM >To: Chris Wilson (PSD) >Cc: 'W3C Style Mailing List' >Subject: RE: [Q] Shouldn't margin-bottom...? > >On Tue, 4 Feb 1997, Chris Wilson (PSD) wrote: >> 2) Paragraphs have a "built-in" margin that is not overridden by CSS >> margins. > > Of course you realize how absurd that is.
