IE7's biggest disappointments (113 views)

I'll tell you my 3 biggest disappointments in Microsofts new browser in this article.


Internet Explorer 7 is released for quite some moths now. I now personally have some experience in coding for IE7. And i thought that I should share this with you guys.

The very most annoying thing about IE7, is the bug that the bottom has a margin of around 20px when you first load a site that has content to the bottom of the page. Lets say, that when you have a div that has a 100% height, and a black background. The first time you will load that website in IE7, every time you restart your IE7, you will get a very annoying bottom margin of around 20pixels without a freaking logical meaning!

The second thing I really hate about IE7, is the font! Not because of the slick small anti aliased font, but that IE7 prints a big font with freaking pixels around it! You would expect that such font has nice edges with big letters, well think again. I highly prefer looking at a big (~30px) font in FireFox, then in IE7.

The last of my humble little list, is the hover option in IE7. I actually do not know whether this is web-standard or not, but i do know that a hover on a div could do some very neat things! My boss actually got thrilled when i showed him an interface that used the div:hover option. Changing the background color when you hover the div is just something that really takes an easy to read interface into a new level.

Please reply to this article, so we can learn more IE7 flaws. :-)
