in thread Author-based Stylin'

I beleive that the reason that wasn't heavily used the last time we revamped the CSS was that not all browsers supported it (and i believe the offender was IE but i could be very very wrong. ;) )

    Still, there's the fact that not all types of lines can appear everywhere. For example, you won't see chat lines in a node. Ditto with the RAT lines. At least these three cases are mutually exclusive.

    So, there probably already is, or should be, a container that can identify what kind of line you're seeing. Combining the container class with the author id as a class, should be enough to unambiguously identify the kind of span you're seeing, and it should even work in MSIE.
