Sorry for the mis-information.  Thanks for the link.  I re-checked in  
Safari1.3 and Opera9, Camino and the latest SeaMonkey and they all  
worked fine.  Oddly though, I can only get it to work for me in ff 1.5  
if I remove the doctype, or choose 'edit css' from the web developer  
toolbar, and even then it works oddly.  It's making me wonder if I have  
some firefox preference corruption since the gecko rendering engine  
seems to handle it just fine.

Sorry for the red herring and thanks again for the correction.
