    <thetext>This may or may not be a bug but more of a feature. When validating a statement 
such as:




margin: 0 2%;




The current (2003-03-06 21:06 UTC) W3.org web-based CSSValidator advises a 
warning:




&quot;You have some absolute and relative lengths in margin. This is not a robust 
style sheet.&quot;




However, I feel that &apos;0&apos; is not an absolute measurement in the same way as 0px 
or 0pt, but more a case of &apos;null&apos;. If I had a statement such as: margin: 1px 2% 
then I&apos;d agree with the reported warning. Writing the statement as margin: 0% 2% 
to please the validator would seem to be inviting a browser bug somewhere or 
other.
