Title: "CSS Browser differences. Why doesn't Netscape work with this?"

Referring to the w3c spec for HTML 4.0( http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.4 )
HTML comments have the following syntax:
<!-- this is a comment -->
<!-- and so is this one,
which occupies more than one line -->
Obviously IE ignores (or supports) the erroneous comment tags <-! ->. This caused NS to ignore the first style. If proper comment tags are used, it will work. NS follows the w3c specs quite closely.
BTW: if you had the life choked out of you by the big bully on the block, you'd suck.
