They also use a variant of this to display blocks of text on a single page w/o too much clutter. The two Apple techniques I’d like to see carefully deconstructed are (in order of importance to me):

All browsers render tables. Personally I'd like to see some sort of use of the marquee tag, which will FINALLY be included in CSS 3.0 and is truly the future of web design. @Eric - what do you mean a div inside a dl isn't allowed? Says who? It looks like the Rog-man did it and it worked great. That just happened. Boosh! Why not just do it with tables and a JS library plugin? All browsers render tables.

Komodo Media is featured in the book, so I guess Transcending CSS thinks this site is OK too. http://www.flickr.com/photos/avalonstar/316819543/ Try to sound a little less self-righteous next time.

A CSS file does not contain a header section where you can load executable 'commands'. I think you desperately need to read "Transcending CSS". That book has CSS designs much more appealing than Apple's... Your design is OK, but the content column is too narrow to my liking. Javascript doesn’t work inside CSS files.
