IE6 Double Margin Bug Fix

If you have a floated element such as a div and you place margin-right or margin-left on that element, our most beloved Internet Explorer 6.0 will double that margin value, causing havoc in your html layout. To fix this simply add display:inline; to your floating element.

Example:

.floatbox {
float: left;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
margin: 5px 0 5px 100px;
/*This last value applies the 100px left margin */
}

Example Fix

.floatbox {
float: left;
width: 150px;
height: 150px;
margin: 5px 0 5px 100px;
display: inline;
}
