Out of curiosity, does your blog validate (xhtml and CSS)?
Um. Well. IE7 is almost INFINITELY preferable to any previous MS attempt at a browser. The problem is now and will be for quite some time that people have contorted themselves and css to hack sites so that those previous MS attempts at a browser don’t drop the 90% of the ‘net-viewing world which uses MS’s abortions into some black hole of totally unusable idiocy.
Welcome to the web-dev’s world. No, there’s not an easy fix. Sorry. And don’t please assume that MS cares.
I checked my design.. and well just some minors bugs.. nothing serious thanks god..
At least they did improve some things.. then again it seems to have brought some sites to a black hole indeed
ie7 ought not be a surprise to anyone.
HandySolo- I’ve been running my site locally only, (fortunately I have access to many local server configs and platforms), so I cannot confirm that everything validates. I suspect that it does, however, since it looked PERFECT in IE6.
Lord help us all!

The w3 validator will let you paste in page source. 🙂
Not being argumentative, but working perfectly in IE6 should not be construed as validating.

How is that being argumentative? Sounded like a simple statement of fact to me. ;)
.. walking on eggshells (god forbid anyone is offended)
Heh. Yup. Beat me to that one, whoo….
…hey – don’t just assume I’m not offended – it’s offensive.
I’m not offended…but, well, I could be!
someone somewhere will undoubtedly be offended at sometime in the near future. Its a gimme. especially by someone here 😛
I could fake being offended, if it helps.
… I’m so tired of living a lie…
I faked it earlier.
*snicker* This is just one of those threads, group.
For those of you who are curious, here is a screenshot showing a before and after look at my site: IE6 version and IE7 version—
