All,

Also, I should add a big +1 for what Zoe says about "No, and such a 
thing would be extremely difficult to create. Most of its CSS bugs 
aren't as simple as 'doesn't support the property min-width' or 
something, but are more dependent on the particular combination of 
things that is going on in a page."   I remember both Eric Meyer and 
Dave Hyatt mentioning similar things. Rendering Engine support charts 
aren't very accurate by their very nature. Whether a given RE supports 
something usually isn't a yes/no issue or even yes/partial/no because 
what does "partial" really mean? - a hundred different things depending 
on the css and the element it's applied to in relationship to the other 
elements around it  their css. So we can't live or die by RE support 
charts, rather we have to go off of what works in a given situation.

Having said that though, I do see some value in knowing whether a given 
rendering engine even begins to support a given feature or not, as then 
you can decide whether you want to spend the time to try to work around 
whatever bugs the RE may have to get the feature working, or instead be 
able to know up front that there's no possibility of it working.  (In 
this particular case where I'm trying to help walk my friend through the 
css - which always takes longer than if it's your own project - knowing 
up front to not even try something could be helpful.)

Again, thanks all for the input. It has been very helpful
