Passed (IE7) Muster, Mostly
Insert big, big sigh of relief here...
I downloaded and installed IE7 yesterday and did a quick check of my web sites - OMG only a couple sites have small problems. I've been losing sleep over this for a couple months now, and have been putting off the dreaded task afraid of what I might see. I'm completely relieved, almost.
What I don't understand is if Microsoft fixed the CSS bugs in IE6, why does my code work in IE7? IE7 should break most of my CSS stylesheets - I'm using hacks (or "filters" as Microsoft so very gently puts it) in every one of those files.
I'm not impressed with the new interface. I mean, it's ok, but I've been using Firefox for a couple years and it's had tabbed browsing (developer's dream!) and better security since it launched. Also, I had to search around to get the toolbar the way I wanted it, and most users won't know where to look, or even that they should!
Why don't we all just use Firefox already?
