      • Our product is suffering some pretty severe problems because of IE7. We've starting getting calls that dialog windows become hidden. We've heard this is a threading issue. We found out that the problem is actually much worse. Modal dialogs don't seem to function correctly in IE7. You can recreate the problem using VB6 by doing this: 1. Create an ActiveX UserControl project. 2. Add a form

      • I have identified a regression in IE7 (compared to IE6/Firefox) and include a simple test case to demonstrate it (below). Open the code below in IE7 and try clicking the various buttons.

      • Hi, I am having problems starting IE7. When I start IE7 it hangs for ages, maybe a few minutes before starting then everything runs OK. I don't think IE7 is the problem because when I start my network connection (tiscali broadband) explorer hangs too and nothing will run until it clears itself, several minutes later. When I boot Windows (XPSP2) iexplorer.exe runs at boot and tries to connect

      • It seems to happen at random.  If I load a page that contains a object that is set to fill the browser window and have turned off scrollbars it occassionally decides to leave a space for them anyway.  I can follow the same link and sometimes it works correctly, and other times it does not. Here's an example - this should fill the page - and on every other version of IE it does

      • Hopefully this is the right forum, it is sort of a script and IE issue.

      • The following javascript resizes a popup browser to the size of the image displayed in the browser. It has worked fine in IE6 and other browsers, but in IE7 it causes the width to be much too small, cutting off the image in the popup. It appears that IE7 is treating "document.body.clientWidth-document.images[0].width" differently than in IE6. Anyone know how to easily remedy this
