You can use float:left and a display at the same time, however besides possible bug fixes (for example, the IE6 double float margin bug is fixed by putting display:inline; on a floated element), it’s really just stupid.
That’s the only use of it really :). The order of what takes effect over others is this.
I’m so happy I found this forum for the fast and good help and the oragnized sections and someday in about some months I hope I can give back to the people out there when I’m hopefully a bit better ;).
Glad we were able to help you. Due to the fact many of us probably have no life, you can almost always expect a speedy reply. Keep viewing threads in the CSS forum about issues. Read what I said in the other thread and you’ll be on the fast track to guru-status in no time.
