Hmm, you've got a very good point. I got the idea from "The Zen of CSS
design." I guess you can't always trust what you read in books. Thanks
for taking the time to explain.

How would I hide the text-align from other browsers. I know how to
hide things from IE 5.x and below, but not the other way around.
Thanks again for your help.
