[BNM] :first-child selector and IE7

[James Wragg]

Hi BNM,

I'm having a weird one with child selectors and the :first-child
pseudo selector and wondered if anyone can give me a hand?

Basically what I want to do is select the first element/tag within a
div, no matter what it is. This seems simple, and it is in FF/Opera
(not sure of Safari), using the following selector:

#mydiv > *:first-child { margin-top: 0 }

And although I wouldn't expect this to work in IE6 and below, I would
expect it to work in IE7 as it apparently supports it[1] but I can't
get it to work.

Has anyone else come up against this, or am I doing something wrong?

Cheers,

James
