I Hate CSS

To add insult to injury, the only browser that seems to work properly in this case is IE. That means my CSS is broken, of course.

Update: When starting with a "known good" version of something and attempting to develop a new system from there, it may prove worthwhile to verify that the "known good" version is, in fact, good. (Which it wasn't, though I'm not yet sure precisely where the problem lies. However, my cleanroom CSS doesn't exhibit the poopy behaviour of the borrowed CSS, so it's in there somewhere.)

1 Is MuNu down, Pixy? It's 1548 on 18 July (CDT), and many of the MuNu blogs do not work. MyPetJawa does, as does your blog, but Munuviana is inaccessible and so is American Geek.

Just askin' . . .

2 Oh . . . never mind. Everything seems to be working again. That was strange . . .

3 My pet CSS peeve involves margins padding, and the way in which different browsers handle them differently. Most of the time it's possible to work around the differences by specifying the values explicitly, but some things just will not look the same in two browsers, no matter what you do.

A close runner-up involves the fact that it is inordinately difficult to do relative positioning (e.g. "align the bottom with the bottom of the parent").

4 Blasphemy! No one should hate CSS, only IE.

5 Couldn't agree more. Everybody should hate IE.
