The float itself, again, is not on the first line. That's pretty clear. The float just always inherits from its parent (in the one case, the block, in the other case the inline), period. >But saying that the > float inherits through ::first-line in the one case and not the other > doesn't make sense to me. It makes just as much sense as saying that the inline that's on the first line inherits from the ::first-line, doesn't it? (Note that webkit doesn't do this; presumably they decided that this part was nonsensical too.) -Boris
