- Nobiting, on 06/16/2008, -7/+145I miss the old digg. Articles like this was a daily occurrence.
- alpha88, on 06/16/2008, -2/+102I love how they refer to the browsers as "Internet Explorer" and "Normal Browsers"
- Kanidia, on 06/16/2008, -1/+84I think you meant:
<!--[if IE]>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/"/>
<![endif]--> - plaxx, on 06/16/2008, -2/+65here's one:
* {
_display: none;
} - biddows, on 06/16/2008, -4/+58Agreed. Very useful resource. I've lost count of the number of times I've written a standards-compliant site and then watched in horror as IE butchers it.
- Stupidumb, on 06/16/2008, -2/+30THIS IS USEFUL
- ausfahrt, on 06/16/2008, -0/+21Couldn't agree more.
- gritta, on 06/16/2008, -1/+20Title should have been 20+ Common Internet Explorer Bugs and Fixes.
- mntbkr, on 06/16/2008, -7/+25This is very useful, DUGG.
- SethEllis, on 06/16/2008, -2/+19I can't tell you how much time I've spent researching to fix issues like this. Now everything has been put in one simple stop. This is an absolute must bookmark for web developers/designers.

- jflowers45, on 06/16/2008, -7/+19Will it fix my receding hairline?
- SteelFrog, on 06/16/2008, -0/+12* { color: pink !important; background-color: pink !important; }
Paste in your MySpace CSS and enjoy! - killfish, on 06/16/2008, -0/+11IE is not that hard to handle if you start designing your web page with a CSS reset.

or
http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/reset/
From yahoo..
"The foundational YUI Reset CSS file removes and neutralizes the inconsistent default styling of HTML elements, creating a level playing field across A-grade browsers and providing a sound foundation upon which you can explicitly declare your intentions."
Basically resets any predefined CSS style that a browser might be styling for you.
This is the reason your website usually gets f'd up when viewed on different browsers. - danielsamuels, on 06/16/2008, -0/+10Don't break the back button!
- thecheatah, on 06/16/2008, -3/+12How about ***** IE?
- SteelFrog, on 06/16/2008, -4/+12Stupid broken box model... oh the pain you've caused me.
- B3N3, on 06/16/2008, -0/+8Which could be shortened to: Firefox
- alpha88, on 06/16/2008, -2/+9I don't think that's what he meant... It's an IE bug fix, to hide things from specific versions of IE.
- serif69, on 06/16/2008, -2/+9Did that article really just end with a tip telling people to use a HR tag?
- inactive, on 06/16/2008, -2/+8cool, thanks
- kjajames, on 06/17/2008, -0/+6I understand what you are saying, and I can't say I have experienced such problems with Firefox. Regardless, your comment is missing the point.
The reason IE sucks so bad is because it fails miserably at rendering web-pages properly. Where in normal browsers you have a perfectly good standards-compliant page looking all great and happy, IE isn't able to do the same. Everything looks wrong where it should look like how the normal browsers render the page. Which sometimes makes designing web-sites a pain.
That is why IE sucks, not because of performance issues. I really hate IE. - smrekar, on 06/16/2008, -0/+6Just comment this out
#hairline {
display: none;
} - SSUK, on 06/16/2008, -0/+6:'(
- sgehrig, on 06/16/2008, -5/+11Indeed, very useful.
- rpong1981, on 06/16/2008, -0/+5Agreed. As a web developer this is nice.
- atgmac, on 06/16/2008, -0/+5He said receding, not baldness. There must be some javascript in there for a smooth animation.
- happyseamonster, on 06/17/2008, -0/+5Time for someone to come up with a new tech only version.
- killfish, on 06/16/2008, -1/+5not sure why someone dugg you down.
You are correct though, the underscore hack targets IE6. - tapeworm77, on 06/16/2008, -1/+5Another tip: If you have a floated div that's inside another div, and it's sticking out of the outer div (basically the outer one isn't growing to wrap around the inner one), just put "overflow:auto" on the outer div and it will grow to contain/wrap the contents of the inner div.... if that makes sense.
- iashraf, on 06/16/2008, -14/+17I think you meant:
* {
display: none;
}
;) - mistergoomba, on 06/16/2008, -0/+3yeah, the article was good until that point. i cant even remember the last time i used an HR tag
- fungusmonkey, on 06/16/2008, -6/+9Best way to fix IE problems? Add a script that tells anyone logging onto your site with IE that Internet Explorer has been discontinued due to massive security flaws and then add a link to the most recent version of Firefox or Safari, etc.
If they're dumb enough to use IE, they're dumb enough to believe the above. :) - smrekar, on 06/16/2008, -0/+3the tip was to use an image as an HR while maintaing backwards compatability and phone-safe browsing.
I thought it was a clever tip, personally.
If you had information heavy websites, you might use them as a division. - tony23, on 06/17/2008, -0/+3If you REALLY want to know how to deal with cross-browser CSS issues:
http://www.positioniseverything.net/ - eighties, on 06/16/2008, -1/+4Dan Cederholm's book on "Bulletproof Webdesign" is my defacto bible for CSS and accessible website design.
- tzmguitarist, on 06/16/2008, -0/+3_display is specific to IE6 :)
- inactive, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2Dugg + Textually comment dugg. It's that diggworthy.
- Quakes, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2This is no mystery, and is caused by the fact that the span-tag is an inline tag. Inline tags aren't allowed to have height or width attributes.
- amadeusdemarzi, on 06/16/2008, -0/+2Right, and my point is your example is wrong. The code you exemplify and the resulting image don't match up.
I did say the article had the proper information, I am just hoping to point it out so you can actually fix it :) - inactive, on 06/16/2008, -0/+2Oops, missed the right screenshot. Thanks for pointing that out :)
- killfish, on 06/16/2008, -0/+2echooooooooo.
- epgui, on 06/17/2008, -0/+2span {
display: block;
height: 347987576px;
} - skeeterbug84, on 06/16/2008, -0/+1This will get a bookmark for sure. Something I ran into the other day - span tag does not work with the height property. You have to specify line-height. I spent a long trying to figure out why the hell the text wasn't aligning to the middle when I specified a height for the span. Safari also didn't seem to care for verticle-align: top. I had to switch to verticle-align: text-bottom, and and offset the position.
- s0ritong, on 06/16/2008, -1/+2Bookmarked.
- flap, on 06/16/2008, -0/+1Some of these are old and or linked to the wrong articles. Tired of lists rather than real articles.
- cjflashman, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1badabing: badabam;
That would be applied to firefox and IE for example.
_badabing: badabam;
That would be applied to IE (Not sure what versions though) - bitterbug, on 06/16/2008, -0/+1Keep the links coming. This article was already prime stuff. You guys are just upping the value :)
- toxicityj, on 06/16/2008, -0/+1why would you want to set everything, irregardless of browser, to not appear? It's much more fun to do what he did and make it invisible for IE users.
