    While i was trying to fix some issues, I found in a IE specific css has

    
ignore {
	Z-INDEX: -1 !important
}
    Code (markup):
    Can anyone please shed some light, what exactly it does? Well i can see it's setting some z-index value but I din't know there is a selector "ignore" present? and i don't see any reference of "ignore" in the html. but still it works.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    There is no such CSS selector that exists afaik, when you say it still works what do you mean by this is it providing some function, what happens to the page in IE if you remove it?

    I can only think that it's possibly a hack in the way IE treats undefined selectors (which I have no idea on how it would)!

    I went looking for an answer and found your Sitepoint thread. :D
    Isn't XML suppose to be formatted with XSLT, not CSS? :confused:

    Thanks Nebula. yes, I had to as I was bit desperate to get an hint at earliest. I see as per w3c reccon XML to be formatted with XSLT, css can do it though?http://www.xml.com/pub/a/w3j/s3.leventhal.html

    However I might get some more information in few days. I will surely keep posted when I get some.
