Re: CSS UL IE help

[Peter Boughton]

Using * works fine with IE6. (In standard mode; haven't bothered testing in Quirks mode - anyone who doesn't supply a DOCTYPE deserves any incompatibilities they get.)

And I frequently do * {margin: 0px; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px;},
and then set anything that I want edges on (ie: input {border-width: 1px;})
and it doesn't get over-written by the *.
