It works fine. Your example I think works the other way. It works in all
browsers but IE
What I do is that I work out using php what browser it is and then serve a
different stylesheet.
However, I noticed that the asterix works fine. Just try it. It is
invalid, but that is the exact reason you do it. So that firefox, etc... do
not go for the padding 12px, while IE ignores the * and applies padding
12px.
