IE Windows: 3 pixel jog with floated content

IE 5 Mac, Commented Backslash

Many of the CSS rendering bugs that occur exclusively in Mac IE 5 can be circumvented using the Commented Backslash method.

Because IE 5 for mac is the only browser that lets you escape characters inside a comment with a backslash this will let you have CSS that gets run by everything besides IE 5 on mac.

Full documentation of this method is here
