[SOLVED] Leading * for some css-Tags

Hello there

I have a question for the style_red.css you provide in your store.

Some CSS-Tags has a leading * like e.g. in the following code the "padding"-Tag:

Or this one here:

Is this star (*) correct before e.g. margin-left or padding? Or maybe it's a bug? I'm asking since NetBeans 7.2 as CSS Editor say's "Unexpected character(s) "*" found!".

Best regards
Mike

Hi mike,

This property is for the compatibility with IE7, you can remove it if you want but IE7 will maybe not use this property.

Okay, a star (*) before a CSS-Tag is especially for IE7?
That the whole CSS-Directive ".hikashop_option_name" is for IE7, that is clear (the comment says that anyway).

Yes.

There are lots of tricks in CSS to target specific browsers. Here is a small list:

I hope that it will help you.

Thank you! That explains it! Some "magic" for me :laugh:
