CSS and IE6 vs IE5.5

[smsinger3]

Hello all. I am designing a web site with exclusively IE6 and IE5.5 users. Do both versions of IE use the same version of CSS? Where can I find out the differences?

Thank you

I only kow of one difference, personally...

The

overflow: ellipsis

style doesn't seem to ork too well in IE5.5, but is dine in IE6.

Hope this helps,

1. IE5x PC implements the box model incorrectly.
This is a big problem if you wan't to make something "pixel perfect"

Basically according to the standard when you add borders etc to a "box" they are added on the outside of the box, increasing it's width. In IE5x PC the borders etc are added inside the box leaving the width as it is.

2. IE5x PC doesn't support CSS2 child selectors.


Try searching Google for "IE5 CSS Hacks" or something like that.
