The box model makes absolutely no sense. <br /> <br /> To think the W3C committee expects us to take margin measurements to the box is asinine. It's like measuring the space between your wall and couch while buying a new couch with these measurements to ensure it fits.<br /> <br /> I would recommend everyone write to the W3C and get them to do it Microsoft's way, which is the *correct* way to DESIGN a page.<br /> :)http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/Comment by Emin ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Very helpfull and understandable piece. thankS very muCh.http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/Comment by Pocoyo ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />I agree with Greg, Peter and John.<br /> <br /> This is another example of the failure of the CSS standards. John gives a valid design to expect CSS to be able to provide and it can't.<br /> http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/Comment by John ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />No - Greg is correct - it's the CSS box model that is broken. The CSS approach breaks horribly as soon as you want your layouts to scale to the size of your screen - a common requirement. <br /> <br /> For example, if I have a DIV that is 100% the height of the screen, and then another DIV inside that, but inset by say 10 pixels you can't do it with the CSS box model. And when I say can't I mean can't - the only way to get round it is to use javascript, which is what a lot of sights end up doing - and that's just crazy. <br /> <br /> Of course with IE's supposedly broken box model you simply set the padding to 10px on the out div and it works - dead easy. Oh, but I forgot it's Microsoft, so it must be rubbish right?<br /> http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/box-model/comments/Comment by Andrew ( <a href="http://ahi2000.com/studyzone">http://ahi2000.com/studyzone</a> )<br /><br />Nice to see some Plain English.
