Information

The above bar charts do not reflect the usage on this site, which suprisingly is visited more by Gecko based browsers than IE6.

These charts are nothing more than a styled definition list with just classes defining each line.

The second chart has been added to rectify the problem that can happen in the first chart when values get closer to 100% (thanks to Chris Hunt for pointing this out).

Cascading Style Sheet - chart #1

dl {
  margin:0; 
  padding:0 0 15px 0;

  }

dt {
  text-align:center; 
  font-size:1.5em; 
  border-bottom:3px solid #fff;
  }

dd {
