		<description>Having used the * {} for ages, I've recently searched for a better one. (Actualy, I went with * {margin:0;padding:0;} a img {border:0;outline:none;} ) My major gripe with * was indeed the problems with forms. (and I suppose it's slower as well, though I never noticed that)

However, between Eric meyer's and yahoo's reset, I'm going for Yahoo. Eric's one is indeed more in-depth, but that also means you're resetting things you never use (for example, q elements, :focus element resetting) when I removed those, I practically ended up with the yahoo-style reset :)

Of couse, I think everone should edit either css reset to what works best for them, and go with that.</description>

		<description>Dan, I have not seen any weird behavior from form elements due to my hack.

But... speaking of Safari :) Your "you can use these tags" section is having some issues in the Safari 3 beta. Not sure about Safari 2.0.</description>

		<description>@Brad - Thanks.  As usual, you and I are of like minds

@Jerry - Thanks for stopping by.  My biggest complaint with the *{} selector is that it also affects inputs and textareas, which can lead to unpredictable results; the idea of the reset is to make everything predictable.  Obviously, with form elements, this isn't always possible (*cough cough* &lt;em&gt;safari&lt;/em&gt; *cough cough*).   Eric Meyer wrote an article about some &lt;a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2007/05/15/formal-weirdness/" title="Eric Meyer-Formal Weirdness" rel="nofollow"&gt;formal weirdness&lt;/a&gt;; you should check it out.</description>

		<description>I concur. But the Meyer hack feels too bulky so I usually stick with my own reset:

&lt;code&gt;* { margin:0; padding:0; outline:0; line-height:100%; }&lt;/code&gt;

I'm probably missing out on a few things and there might be some performance issues with the asterisk, but in the end this helps a lot.</description>

		<description>Good article, Dan. I've been using Eric's reset as well and I agree with you that his is the best.</description>
