In the definition of 'overflow' in CSS2.1, it says 'overflow' applies to block containers. (it used to apply to block-level boxes before July last year[1]) In 9.2.1, it says [[ Block-level elements are those elements of the source document that are formatted visually as blocks (e.g., paragraphs). The following values of the 'display' property make an element block-level: 'block', 'list-item', and 'table'. ... Except for table boxes, which are described in a later chapter, and replaced elements, a block-level box is also a block container box. ... ]] And the table chapter mentions nothing about the term "block container". I suppose I am missing something but what exactly is that? [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2010Jul/0383 Cheers, Kenny
