Indians and fairies

Friday, February 17th, 2006

Since next week is a school holiday, carnaval was celebrated today already in school.

Unfortunately, the virus that’s keeping lots of kids home these days, picked Gabriël today.

IE7 (beta) has bugs! (what else is new)

Thursday, February 2nd, 2006

Today I discovered that Internet Explorer 7 has a beta preview out, which is available to the public since two days already. Obviously I couldn’t wait, downloaded it, installed it, and checked a bunch of my sites.

Yup – discovered bugs!

One bug had to do with the method I used to get IE to encompass floats, and although it was easy to mend, I haven’t yet checked all the consequences of the change I made, but I will surely test that further.

There was also a brand new weird bug, to do with CSS rollovers using the a:hover pseudo-class. I’ve explained all about it in my new CSS section on Locus Optimus, it’s called the IE7 CSS rollover bug. Go look! ;-)
