How do you hack or debug the position on IE8? You've only shown IE6 & 7.

[Brink Kale]

Once you are using C.S.S standards, you shouldn't really need to make any changes for I.E 8 since the rendering engine is good enough that it would look the same in Gekko, I.E 8 and Webkit based browsers. The only browser you should really need to use any C.S.S hacks if necessary would be I.E versions lower than eight, which you should do your best "not" to support. If you absolutely need to, the "asterisk C.S.S hack" should work fine. There are rare occasions that Internet Explorer would not have the same effect as it would in over browsers such as the "display: table" issue that I.E seems to be unable to understand. If you encounter any such issues feel free to look around in Google, or if you are unable to understand the problem at all feel free to post within the Profile Discussion and someone knowledgeable would do their best to help you. =)

They work fine for me.
What browser are you using/what are you trying to do?

I'm using Firefox, and I'm trying to get my comments section to scroll without actually showing the scroll bar. And also, it works on your profile but not mine.

Ah, so you mean hidden scrolls. 3nodding

/*comments*/
#comments dl {overflow-x:hidden; overflow-y:auto;}
#comments p {color:white;}
#comments .caption, #comments .caption2 {margin-top:10px; margin-bottom:10px; border:2px solid black;}
#comments .caption .date, #comments .caption2 .date {text-align:center;}
#comments {overflow-y:scroll; height:200px; width:400px; scrollbar-arrow-color: white; scrollbar-face-color: #4F4F4F; scrollbar-track-color: gray; scrollbar-3dlight-color: black; scrollbar-darkshadow-color: black; scrollbar-highlight-color: black; scrollbar-shadow-color: black;}

Replace the two codes in red above with the ones below. 3nodding (The third code is for adjusting the comment captions to fit and look neat, otherwise when you set the dl height and etc what'll happen is stuff'll pretty much look screwed up.)

#comments{width:400px;height:200px;overflow:auto;overflow-x:hidden;overflow-y:hidden;}
#comments dl{height:130px;overflow:auto;overflow-x:hidden;padding-bottom:0px;padding-right:4000px;}
#comments .caption, #comments .caption2{position:relative;left:-100px;width:400px;}

I feel like a retard.
I have one more question.
How would I get the cursor to change when it goes over a link?

There w o u l d n t be e n o u g h to count them all

[Brink Kale]

Feel the girth, feel the pinch and exhale. Voices dead within the wind . . . I could never l- love you.

Set the cursor property on the "a" selector. =)

Fluid from a broken wound, ceases; pushing up through the vents, so wild.
All alone and no one's home darling, not a soul, not a sound but somehow. . .

The code would go like this-

a:hover{cursor: -insert cursor value here- ;}

For example, if I wanted an animated cursor the code would go like a:hover{cursor: url(blahblahblah .png, .gif, .cur or .ani), auto;}. And if I wanted it to go to some default, the code would be like a:hover{cursor:crosshair;}. 3nodding
