  I have a number of blocks of content (product items) that I want to
wrap naturally at the end of the line. float: left has the unhappy
habbit of stacking up where the lowest extending block is. I know there
is a relatively new CSS property that does display: inline for blocks, ...

I'd like to have a CSS file for everything that's common to my site,
and other CSS files that are specific to certain pages or groups of
pages. When a page loads, it would load in BOTH the General CSS and the
specific CSS file for that page. As long as none of the selector names

I've got a problem here that's simply getting on my nerves. I have a
horizontal menu (styled as per below with floated li's) but Firefox
