What else you got? Ah, I'd completely forgotten about that property. Thanks for pointing it out! It'll be helpful when it gets supported. > Floating has its own other problems too, when used to create what is really more like a run of inline blocks than what "float" was actually created for. For instance, it doesn't allow you to center the LI elements, as you can easily do with inline blocks: Indeed. By the way, the "specific and bizarre HTML" I was referring to was this: <ul ><li>foo</li ><li>bar</li ><li>baz</li ></ul> This embeds the whitespace you use to prettyprint your code inside the tags, so there's no whitespace at all in the content. I've only had to do this once, though, and I felt pretty bad about it. ~TJ
