CSS \\9 in width property

问题:

What is the meaning of this? I am guessing it is a browser hack, but I have not been able to find what exactly it does.

width: 500px\\9;

What is the significance of \\9?

回答1:

\\9 is a \"CSS hack\" specific to Internet Explorer 7, 8, & 9.

This simply means that the one specific line of CSS ending with a \\9; in place of the ; is only valid in IE 7, 8, & 9.

In your example,

width: 500px\\9; means that a width of 500 pixels (same result as width: 500px;) will only be applied while using IE 7, 8, & 9.

All other browsers will ignore width: 500px\\9; entirely, and therefore not apply width: 500px; to the element at all.

If your CSS looked like this...

#myElement {
    width: 300px;
    width: 500px\\9;
}

The result would be #myElement 500 pixels wide in IE 7, 8, & 9, while in all other browsers, #myElement would be 300 pixels wide.

In IE9 to set the width property you just add this hack.

e.g

.align {
    float:left;
    margin:5px;
    background-color:blue;
    width:65px;
    width:\\9 !important;
}
