IE6 absolute positioning attaching all four sides

By my own and other's observations, the following CSS does not work in IE6.

#div1 {
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 50px;
right: 50px;
bottom: 50px;
}

The only alternative I can think of is to position left and top only, and set width and height in a script which handles an onResize event. Can anyone suggest a less ugly alternative?

IE8 support for CSS3

I’m disappointed that IE8 will have almost no CSS3 support, but I can’t say I’m surprised. Still, full CSS2.1 support will be worth having, assuming that Microsoft delivers on its promise.
