As David Faure (Konqueor's maintainer) can say here, "you forgot to attach a 
patch"  :-))

If you really want CSS3: display: inline-block added to Konqueror, send a 
message to <33860@bugs.kde.org>
and follow bug status at
http://bugs.kde.org/db/33/33860.html

All notes to bug reports are automatically sent to <konq-bugs@kde.org>, and 
key KHTML/Konq developers read this least.
So far, I was the only person sound about 'inline-block' implementation.
If you add your voice, may be, it wil be fixed in week or two.

I found that IE6 has very strange handling of 'float' elements, in 
particular, their widths defined as %%.
I had no time to read completely CSS1 spec (as MS claims CSS1 spec 
conformance, not CSS2) - but so far I think MS IE is wrong in rendering such 
elements.

To be sure that everyone understands what I am speaking about: testcase and 
screenshot of IE6 are attached.
Compare rendering by IE6 to either Mozilla or Konqueror - you will see huge 
difference.
To my best knowledge, 'float' is part of CSS1.
