I think Jeff was right about this. IE5 (but not IE5.5) seems to ignore the
"body > " part but render the "#blue" part, so in the following example:
<style>
body > #blue {
color: blue;
}
</style>
<body>
<p id="blue">
This is blue.
</p>
</body>
The paragraph text would be blue in IE5.0, but for the wrong reason. It
would remain black in IE5.5.
Thanks,
Simon
