Summary
In this chapter you have learned that hacks and filters can be an important weapon in any CSS developer’s arsenal. However, hacks need to be used sparingly, and preferably as a last resort. If you do need to use hacks or filters, do so with forward compatibility and ease of maintenance in mind.
In the next chapter, you will learn about different ways to attack and fix CSS bugs. You will be introduced to some of the most common and perplexing browsers bugs around, and you will learn how to fix them using your newfound arsenal of techniques.
