IE < 8 Margin collapse bug - Does it apply only to parent & child elements?

HTML & CSS

In the collapsing margins article, it’s mentioned that “IE<8 won’t collapse the margins if the elements has hasLayout property”.

Does it affect only parent & child elements or adjacent elements as well?

Does both elements need to have hasLayout property for IE<8 to not collapse the margins?

Not to be accused of being rude, but have you run tests to see if this is the case? It’s pretty straight forward to do so :).

Hey Ryan,

I had run the tests in IE6 and weirdly the margin collapsed for both adjacent & parent and child elements. There was no bug.

I guess it might have fixed in a later release candidate. That is why I asked in the forum.
