So, IE7 was released on the 18th of October. Yes, I know the Beta has been out for some time now.

Naturally, the first site I browsed to was CJ Website Design only to discover the margins had messed up on all of the pages. I have fixed it now but it seems that IE7 is very strict with standards - and so it should be. The problem was, I wasn’t floating the containing element which had a margin set at 0, 5%. To fix it, I added another container for this container and floated the new container - problem solved in 2 mins. Now I am happy to report that my site looks great in all browsers; IE6, IE7, Firefox, Opera and the rest.

All in all, I’m quite impressed with IE7 - its basically Firefox with all the good things about IE6 built in and the bad things thrown out (fingers crossed - it is only day 1 of installation after all).
