<style> Outside of <head> Rendering on Page-Collection of common programming errors

Using the HTML5BoilerPlate template from Paul Irish and gang (although, I’m not saying that has anything to do with it) and I have some styles inside tags that are rendering on page. If I move them inside the they work as they’re supposed to work. I’ve done this before to do some quick editing and have never seen the styles rendered on the page. Here’s a sampling of the head code:





 
Title












    
        
        ...

However, we’ve found that taking out the container div allows the style tags to work and they no longer show up in the rendered page. What we haven’t figured out is why and that’s bothersome. Has anyone ever had this issue? Or can anyone give insight as to why this might happen?

Not a deal breaker just more a matter of knowledge. Thanks.

**EDIT: #selector > * was the culprit – aargh! *
