Differentiating CSS for IE7 IE6 and firefox
if you put # before any css tag, only IE 7 and IE 6 will read that line.
if you put _ before any css tag, only IE 6 will read that line.
example:
width: 560px; /* All other browsers */
#width: 558px; /* IE 6 & 7 */
_width: 557px; /* IE 6 */
just remember to keep this order.

W3 Validation
Hi Nima,
I am 25 year veteran DOS and Windows programmer and am just now learning XHTML/CSS to create a web site.
This method seems to work in these 3 major browsers and assume it will not kill any others.
When I submit it to the W3 CSS Validator it complains. A sample:
html {
font-size: 12px; /* Firefox+ */
#font-size: 75%; /* IE6, IE7 */
_font-size: 100%; /* IE6 only */
font-weight: normal;
}
W3C CSS Validator Results for file://localhost/TextArea
Sorry! We found the following errors
URI : file://localhost/TextArea
3 html Parse Error - .font-size: 75%;
6 Parse Error - : 100%; font-weight: normal; }
I also found a similar suggestion using a period instead of pound sign but it also fails.
Using the !important validates but doesn't give as much control.
Is this something we will have to live with?
Thanks
Tom

I ignore this validation errors!
Hi Tom.
Actually this trick, !important, period and ... are not valid structures for CSS.
Since I rarely need to use this trick in my style sheets, I ignore any validation error about that.
Regards.
