Hello (my first post and all that)
I was wondering if there were any plans to add an option to switch
between the subtractive (ie: IE5) and additive (current) box dimension
models.
There are a number of instances where the subtractive model had
advantages over the current model. For instance, if you have a box you
know to be 500px but need a 1cm border and 0.5em worth of padding, then
it gets complicated.
I'm thinking of something like:
selector {
box-model: [additive | subtractive ];
}
P.S. Are we final on the use of a "CSS DTD" header to inform UAs what
version of CSS is currently being used?
Regards
