Ahh... Pipe dreams :-/ I can't wait, though. And full support for  
"display: table-*"! It will be a new era of web design, indeed.

I appear to have gotten pretty close and may be able to get even  
closer. The only limitation is with IE6, in which JS will have to be  
enabled to allow for the "expression" CSS properties to work.  
Otherwise, the :before and :after pseudo-elements do the trick quite  
nicely on real browsers. *cough cough* I'm afraid to even try IE 5...

Awesome work! It works perfectly in FF and Safari. This is a great  
"middle-ground" solution and I may even use it in the final site I'm  
working on until I can finish my "holy grail" solution to the box  
problem. Philippe's suggestions (in this thread) are going to help  
immensely, as well.

You guys rock!

I'll post my progress sometime next week, work schedule permitting.

Thanks!
