MidiMagic, I think, well actually, I know each of the above comments are incorrect. I've used 0px for styles on all the websites I've built and likewise, I've used margin, padding and borders in a single stylesheet element for a lot of those sites.

All my websites validate to W3C HTML 4.01 strict and CSS standards with 0 errors or warnings. So, if 0px is an invalid style, it would have been picked up. Likewise, I am pleased to say that my websites using these stylesheets are pixel perfect between FFX2, FFX3, IE6, IE7, Netscape, Opera and Safari.

Just some food for thought.
