IE7.js
Sunday, June 15th, 2008 by MattI recently came across an intriguing script while trying to find a fix for a CSS bug. It’s called IE7.js, and it claims “to make Microsoft Internet Explorer behave like a standards-compliant browser,” and to fix PNG transparency in IE5 and IE6 to boot.
Are you just a couple of scripts away from never again having to find a workaround for an IE CSS bug? Probably not. I haven’t had the time to test the script extensively, but the test pages look promising. It will make things a lot easier for you, but I doubt it will magically make everything work flawlessly in IE.

I’ll have to try this at the office, it’d be great if it does work! Any update now that you have used it a month?

@Nikk, I haven’t used it actively yet.
I tried it out, thought “this is cool,” then forgot about it. I need to try it out on a serious project sometime before I have a good idea on how well it works.

Thanks for the tip… I’m going to do a series of test with it and see if it really does what it “should” . Would be great to solve all of IE’s problems with one js.
