Example showing the div-padding-width-problem...
466 bytes, text/html
Details 
a DIV like this

<div stlye="width:200px;padding:25px">...</div>

will be 250px wide - not 200px as defined by the width-attribute.
The padding should be applied *within* the div, shouldn't it?
Sorry, there's a typo in the attached example. It should read "This is a 250px
wide DIV"
width is the content width exclusive of padding.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/box.html#box-dimensions and do not rely on
Internet Explorer for checking. IE is very buggy.
