[wp-hackers] WordPress changes for responsive designs

[Joshua Sibelman]

Depending on !important doesn't seem like the ideal way to solve this. I'd rather be able to set things up where the caption is added without an explicit width, and then I can just set width normally. Scribu pointed me in the right direction with the media hook. I was able to find a way I can replace this.
