Ask HN: Who Invented CSS?

Google suggests a person who suggested the idea, who was the first to implement it at a decent scale?

    iirc, IE5 for Mac's Tasman engine (1999/2000) was the first to showed what could be done w/ CSS when it's properly supported.

    Edit: And yeah, it was Håkon Wium Lie who wrote the first draft, I think?
