I believe it's all personal preference. If anything I would use invalid techniques/methods as a last resort. So yes, I could use zoom:1 to evoke hasLayout, but I would first exhaust all other methods. @Maxwell: Hey, I'm glad it was helpful! Awesome work with Animevice btw. @Christoph and @Jarryd:

Web standards are a must, but not to the point at which they start to hinder the implementation of advanced designs- and interaction techniques. So if there's e non-standard workaround for some stupid IE bugs, let's embrace it and forget about the rest. @Jarryd: Totally agree with you.

In these cases,use zoom: 1; to evoke hasLayout in IE (although not valid CSS). Sometimes you just can’t specify a width or height.
