Site check. IE 6 gets it wrong, IE 5.5 gets it right???

Sent by jack fredricks on 29 April 2005 23:11


*html .sectionLanding .contentArea {width:540px}

and

..sectionLanding .landingSidebar {float:left; width:135px;
border-right:1px solid #ccc; height:200px; background:orange}


1) each landingsidebar is 136px wide (135px + 1px border-right)
2) the star * html rule is telling IE6 to make the contentArea 540px
wide. That only leaves room for 3.
