+<LI>CSS1 simply said that 'margin-right' was ignored if the both
+'margin-left' and 'width' were set. In CSS2 the choice between
+relaxing 'margin-right' or 'margin-left' depends on the writing direction.
 
 <LI>In CSS1, several properties (e.g., 'padding') had values referring
 to the width of the parent element. This was an error; the value
 should always refer to the width of a block-level element and this
 specification reflects this by introducing the term "containing block".

 <LI>The 'clear' property now only applies to block-level elements.
