I recently came across a fun one though. My page in IE looked as I expected, but FF did not. I had to explicity add a height to my divs for it to display correclty in FF. Not really a hack, but interesting that IE could handle expanding the div w/o the pre-determined height, but FF could not.

@tombstoneweb, have we scared you enough, yet?
Our site is fully tableless and it works back to IE3. For sure IE3 and IE4 do not understand our stylesheets, but it is fully accessible, because the structure is well done.

Our site looks the same in all browsers including IE5.5, IE6 and IE7, with some minor bugs which are almost invisible in IE5 too. But that because we did not have the time to get that fixed yet. But is it necessary?

So what is scary here?
