Certainly not me. I'm very impressed, John! Not to mention
grateful, because I'd figured that we'd have to wait for IE7 before
we had any hope of seeing support for this. I just wish your
technique had been found in time for me to put it in my latest book.
Well, there's always room for a sequel.
Feel free to visit the updated boxpunch demo on css/edge for a
link to an IE-friendly variant, or jump straight to the variant page
at <http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/boxpunch/demo-ie.html> if
you're so inclined.
Well done indeed!
