YUI 3: CSS Reset not validating

I'm seeing that the W3C CSS validator is struggling with:

input,textarea,select{*font-size:100%;}

Should the * really be there? Sorry if this is an old question - I didn't find an answer elsewhere.

Thanks,
Chris

It has to be there. It is not proper CSS though, but a hack to make different versions of IE to work. Standard browsers will ignore such a line, IE will not and so certain inconsistencies in IE can be compensated for.
