-moz-inline-box

is it equal to inline-block or some difference?

what oldest Gecko browser recognize it?

do I need to use it in FF 1.5 ?

Full disclosure: I'm adjusting my SELECT widget based on textfield +
drop-down link menu. So instead of <option> I have <a
href="something.html" class="option"> and inline-block is very handy
there.

No. It doesn't work without width.

Use of display:table;display:inline works sometimes just like
display:inline-table

Don't know. IIRC, there is differences between versions, at least before
FF1.0

No.

Might work, if you use width. But usually, if you can use float instead,
use it.
