      • I have an IE extension written in .NET 2.0 that manipulates the DOM in a manner very similar to the IE developer toolbar. However, I need to inject some images into the DOM as well, and our initial approach was to stuff the images into the IE temp files directory, and then retrieve them at runtime. This approach worked okay for us until we started working with the release version of Windows Vista.

      • Hi, We're writing a web application, targetted for IE6 users only. Those users need to print some web pages through the browser ("File-Print"). Data spans over several A4 pages, so we need to properly manage *page breaks*. Furthermore, our page breaks must behave like CSS2 "page-break-after:right" . Namely: printer is set to print on both sides of the paper,

      • I've noticed that there appears to be an inconsitency with how text is rendered in elements on IE7. I have a web page that is encoded in utf-8, and contains japanese code points. All text looks fine except text in select elements. In a select element the text is rendered as squares. I can fix the problem by explicitly selecting a font that contains these code points (e.g. MS Gothic) However, that

      • Just a little something I discovered while redesigning my site: Although IE7 now supports alpha .png it does still seem to have some troubles handling it. Whenever I use a .png-file with alpha channels it works great, until I try to either stretch or repeat it. Repeating a .png causes slow performance. This can be reproduced by making 100px wide table cell containing a 1px wide .png backgrou

      • I've been working on a jquery plugin to allow fast multi-column sorting/paging/filtering on tables. It works great in firefox2 - even with tables up to 16,000+ cells. IE is incapable of handling the larger tables which has been very frustrating. My plugin has plugins as well - one of them requires me to add class names to each TD element as it's parsing and that is what kills IE. On smaller table
