Hello,
I am new to this list and I am desperate for an answer to my question.
Ideally, setting the width, margin-left and margin-right properties on a
block-level element to auto would create a centered box that sizes to
its contents. Instead, all browsers that I know of default the width to
100% if it is not set explicitly, and only tables and floating elements
size to their contents. Floating has its own problems though, and
{display: table} doesn't work in MSIE/Win. Is there any reliable way to
make an element size to its contents without resorting to floating?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings,
Timo Frenay.
