Yes, that's the point. ^_^ IE's "'width' sizes the border box" behavior was the better behavior. This was very early in the CSSWG's life, tho, and the group as a whole was less mature, so it didn't value back-compat and supporting actual pages as much. I wasn't around at the time, so I can't be sure of exactly why people preferred the content-box sizing model, but regardless, it was a wrong choice for compat at the time, and in hindsight, it was the wrong choice for the sizing default. There are still reasons to size the content-box, but that's what box-sizing is for (or some equivalent mechanism). |
