Ok I never knew that this existed until today. What exactly is CSS2? Are they features that only work on newer browsers? Any good tutorial sites?

It's just an add-on to CSS-1 basically. I think that Opera and Mozilla support most of CSS-2 with a few exceptions (quite a short list for Opera, not sure about Moz). I can't seem to find a good list of exactly what elements of CSS-2 are suported - seems to be a matter of trial and error.

OKay, here's a good page:

Lists Opera 7 with best support closely followed by Moz. IE 6/pc way down in 6th place Laughing out loud

Well, obviously, that browser was released just about the same time as the CSS 2 specification was released! (dated May 18, 1998). No wonder their support is so poor (big wonder why anyone is still using that antique).

The thing that's really striking here is the points difference between IE 6 and the top two IMO. Sad.
