Yes, that's exactly it. You obviously cannot prevent a site author to use !important as well and thus all I was saying is that - especially from the standpoint of the 3rd party developer - there is no guarantee the 3rd party's CSS will not be overridden unless an iframe is used for such widget. Yet another reason to avoid !important for your site - at least if you know you want to include 3rd party stuff. --Klaus
