more on the CSS track

so far, I have found that

the following work in IE (and not in Opera, nor Firefox):
html*#name{seemingly shows in IE and Safari;}
* html #name{seemingly exclusive IE;}
html*#name{[this will be seen in IE and in Safari;]this will be seen only by IE;}
(i wonder whether it’s better to use ‘* html #name’, or ‘html*#name’ for getting IE’s attention?)

iCapture is a great tool for viewing your page once or twice… but to try to combat real css issues, it’s just not going to work out..
i’ll have to figure something else
or i’m going to have a page that’s severely demented in Safari. which is not having me thinking nice thoughts about the browser.

*12:58am on tues05apr: it seems a little bit of position:absolute goes a long way in opera. humph to that too.
