I haven't seen this hack mentioned anywhere. I just
ran into it quite by accident. The idea is that IE
still parses CSS statements even if they are commented out.
.fullName {
border-bottom: solid rgb(51, 89, 142) 3px;
font-size:1em;
position:absolute;
left:12em;
top:1.1em;
// left:11em;
// top:2.5em;
}
IE 6.0 Win will use the values of 11em for left: and 2.5em for top.
Opera 6 Win and NN 6.2 Win will use the values of 12em for left: and 1.1em
for top.
I haven't experimented how this works with older browsers. Hope someone
finds this useful.
