Hi, My solution to this: never use padding. You get the same (optical) effect when you set margins for inner elements. By doing that, everything will be calculated and treated correctly. If you have multiple elements inside and don’t want to set margin for everything, than group them in another nested div and set a margin for this one, so that the parent will get a padding. Example: your content Of course this adds more code, but it is as safe as it can be, across all browsers and even in quirks mode. Oddly enough, I’ve just been working with this myself!
In creating a Firefox addon I’m using a nice fluid layout so that my section fit no matter what size browser you have. However, I also wanted a very nice ‘Facebook-style’ border with rgba colours so that they were see-through. If you set a background-color on the element and apply a border, it won’t be see-through because the border is.technically. on top of the content.
Using a mixture of border-box and background-clip I managed to get the desired effect, with ease! How are things at Egghead? On topic: If you have to choose one box model, the W3 box model is more versatile than the IE one. It bugs me when people who haven’t even read the spec view the W3 model as inferior simply because it is less intuitive.
Now that we have the alternate box sizing available, we get the best of both worlds. For IE6/7 in standards mode, you could use CSS expressions to bring them in line. I’m guessing that this property will be extended soon – I can think of other box-sizing methods that, like border-box, would be useful in special situations. A value for instructing a block element to take up all the height that it can (in the same way that a block element takes up all the width it can) could be incredibly useful. IE7 is dying faster than IE6.
Even if it does become ‘the new IE6’, it won’t be another ‘IE6’. People are slowly upgrading PC’s and that is steadily killing older versions of IE.
I don’t think anyone would buy a new PC to specifically run a certain browser, but if most of the PC’s running Vista and Win7 did upgrade to IE9, we could then relax knowing that an extra 15%+ would be able to make use of CSS3. Obviously this won’t happen over night, but the IE9 usage share will steadily grow per month. IE9 might not be a magical bullet, but I think it at least qualifies as a poisoned-dagger.
