Mozilla used to inherit the old definition of computed value, but it was a lot of extra work, and getting rid of that extra work was the whole point of the change that introduced used values. The point of that change was that inheritance would never depend on layout-dependent computations, which it would if margin:auto has to be inherited as a number. It would be extremely silly to remove that dependency for all cases but one. -David -- L. David Baron http://dbaron.org/ Mozilla Corporation http://www.mozilla.com/
