Isn't CSS supposed to let one *avoid* doing that: putting in extra markup for presentation? I certainly wouldn't want to go around putting <div>s around all my <pre>s so I could let the background scroll with long unbroken lines. And then I'd have to be careful of what I do with other unrelated properties -- the margins and border have to be on the outer element, but not the padding. The padding has to go on the inner element, but not the outer. It's a hack. And its messiness isn't just a lack of theoretical purity. ~fantasaiReceived on Sunday, 4 January 2004 20:42:58 UTC
