#87 Odd CSS entry?

[Lawrence Akka]

phpwiki.css - lines 234-237:

div.wiki-edithelp {
background: #fff8dc; / darker ivory /
font-size: smaller;
padding: 0.05ex; 1%;
}

Is that 1% correct? It causes problems on my setup
(IE6 on Windows 98). The help bar extends way beyond
the edges of the screen, so that I have to scroll to
see all the text. If I comment out the 1%, everything
is fine

The % was intentional, I'm pretty sure it's valid css. But if it's causing problems for a browser i'll just change it to something else like 2pt.

That's a problem with CSS. That the CSS is valid doesn't
mean it doesn't completely hose the display in some browser.
:-/

If you change it to

padding: 0.05ex 1em;

does it work okay?

FWIW: I've been specifying vertical spacing in units of
'ex's and horizontal spacing in 'em's and have not had too
many portability problems.
