IE7 tried to kill my soul - but the internets saved me
I owe a life debt to these two: [456bereastreet.com] [tanfa.co.uk]
Margins on floated divs were rattling my shaky css-fu, of which I possessed a confidence surplus due to the 160+hour December xhtml rewrite marathon giving my skillz some verisimilitude.
Wouldn’t you know, the solution was inline-block instead of inline-table and a height:1px; in my ie6-styles hidden behind a conditional comment. It’s like magic.

In my source code I'm replacing all of these: <!-- _COMMENT_ --> With these: <!--[if !IE]> _COMMENT_ <![endif]-->
Because IE6 likes to choke on (itsowncock) comments in the code, and this will hide comments from the IE family. Anything I can do to deny IE full disclosure of my intent is a win.
