If inline-block worked cross-browser, we wouldn't have the floating hell we have today. inline-block is not supported by firefox, and won't be until firefox 3 is released.
And I'm not defending non-standard html (even though sometimes, the standards are overly restrictive for no real reason) but I was trying to duplicate an already existing behaviour and the only way to do it was with non-standard html. But my real point was that javascript generated html has no real incentive to be valid as it never gets tested by validators and it works. -blair On Aug 13, 3:29 pm, Klaus Hartl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Blair Mitchelmore wrote: > > I have no idea why a fieldset is being used but I do know that it let > > me define both a width as well as display:inline so that's probably > > the reason the script uses it. > > There is a CSS property that perfectly fits what is required here: > > display: inline-block; > > > It's not really standards friendly, > > but javascript generated html rarely is. > > That is a pretty weak argument.
