…except this technique doesn’t work in IE6 or IE7, and is therefore useless for real-world production work.

If you must use rounded corners, use jQuery to add that after the page is loaded.

the curvycorners-plugin does not work with “position:fixed”, you need to do it on your own… zara

I found a MUCH easier method to clear floats a while back. While it’s sort of related to other methods posted in the comments, the beauty lies in its simplicity. No IE hacks, one simple declaration. Only a single drawback that I’m aware of. And it works across all major browsers.

Using your example, Dan:

#float1, #float2 { float: left; clear: none; } #container { overflow: hidden; }

As we all know, IE6’s incorrect handling of floats, will be used against itself in this elegant solution - it does by default what you need it to. The drawback I mentioned is, of course, that you cannot set the height for #container.

#container {
overflow: auto;
}
* html #container {
height: 1%; }

And how do you remove/hide the scrollbar that is displayed from de overflow:auto?

Comment on Format Your CSS by Josh Walsh

I tend to code in the “Traditional” way as well. As you said, it’s definitely not ideal, but works well for me.

Your tabbed approach is interesting to me, but since I don’t do a whole lot of styling by individual ID’s , rather mostly by more generic class based styles, I think it would be distracting for me.

I’m going to try using one-line selectors for simpler definitions and keeping to “Traditional” definitions for larger, more structural definitions.
