The goal of this test is to identify presentation quirks of the CSS display property by determining which values will cause a containing <div> to collapse as far as its contents will allow–specifically in IE5 on the Mac.
Each logo instance below is contained in a <div> which uses a unique display property. Every known value for the display property was tested to determine if any values would result in the desired behavior.
The results indicate that display:inline-table is the only known value for the display property that will cause a block element, such as a div, to shrink to fit an object it contains. If you are viewing this page with IE5.x on a Mac running OS 9, you should only see a complete, intact drop shadow on the instance below that uses display:inline-table.
